    setting the crossover

    i have a RSP-1068 so would you set the speakers to small and 100Hz

    speakers are 602.5s3 main and rear, lrc60 center and asw650 sub
    Main Linn Ninka
    Center Linn AV5120
    Rear Linn Ninka
    Sub B&W ASW 650

    Processor Rotel RSP-1570
    Amp Rotel RMB-1075

    You would probably want to set the crossover at 60hz, 100hz will make the sub easy to localize, and keep the speakers set to small. Your speakers have a frequency response 3db down @ 50hz. so your sub can handle the bass below that.

          Yes, set your mains to 60Hz and also the sub.

                His main/rear are both 602.5, so 60 hz for them seems reasonable... Though you might want to try 65 and 70...

                maybe 80 hz for the center?, but could also try 85/90...

                I'd recommend setting the x-over to 10hz higher than the lowest setting that the speakers can handle, if not 15/20hz higher.

                You could try setting the sub to 80, and see how that sounds to you vs 60...
