excellent instructions, however in addition try setting the sub by ear for music - listening to favorite cd so that bass is augmented but not easily localized by level or sonic signature and can barely tell that sub is there. you're looking for extension and not bass throbbing, on favorite seedee with bass content. i find that with floor model front speakers with good bass of their own that you then end up setting crossover at less than 80 hz, and has side benefit of making sure sub covers lowest possible octaves it is physically capable of. a higher crossover setting with some subs often means less output in lowest frequencies since it is covering part of low end that is not necessary if fronts are up to task, i.e. double duty takes away it's reserve if you will. if your fronts are bookshelf or mini monitors then 80 hz or more probably is best, especially with just one sub that is (ideally) rear (right) corner placement. just my 2 cents to you to try ...
