After reading a post in another section from Michael Mohrmann, I have a concern about the bass management of the AVM20. I have already installed 2 Clark Synthesis transducers in the floor of my theater room. I will also have 7.1 sound. I am considering Paradigm speakers:
Studio 100s - mains
Studio/CC - center channel
Studio/ADP - side surrounds
Studio 20 - rear surrounds
Servo-15 - subwoofer
However, due to cost issues, I may have to get less expensive speakers, i.e., 60s for the mains and less expensive sub. My understanding is that the lower frequencies can be sent to the sub. Thus, the difference is sound (for movies) would not be noticable between the Studio 100s and the 60s (or even 40s).
My question is - Does the AVM20 have the capability to do what I expect it to do? Will it handle LFE being routed to two Clark Synthesis transducers as well as a sub? I am not clear about what it means to the sound when you have bass overlap or loss of bass due to improperly summing the bass signals.
If the AVM20 (I am also considering the PVA7 amp) will not do what I expect it to do, what pre/pro and amp (with similar features and in the same price range) should I consider?
My wants include THX Ultra 2 certification and 7.1 channel sound.
I would appreciate any help.
