CD,

I own a Rel Storm III and I set up both high and low level connections. Since 2 channel stereo CD's and 2 Channel SACD'd have no LFE or .1 information then my system sends all bass info to the mains, since they are set to large, and the sub picks up at 25hz and below (not accounting for the slope and roll off of the sub and the mains). The sub will start to kick in somewhere in the 30's right as the mains start to roll off also somewhere in the 30's. Even though my mains are rated down to 20hz, I am sure they roll off way before 20hz.

During DVD playback the sub not only supports the mains as in CD playback above, but gets all the info for the LFE channel as well. This allows for support of my mains below their rolloff and the playing of all the LFE information that the director intended for the subwoofer.

CD, you had mentioned the idea of a "boomy" response by the overlapping of the sub with the mains in your first post. How can this occur in my set up when the LFE channel, right and left main channels are all seperate discrete information independant of each other?
