    803S & DD-12 Crossover Freq

    I have a set of 803s mains and use a DD-12 sub. I was curious what frequency the DD-12 should be set at. Right now I have mine at about 60Hz. I really haven't found any recommendations in the documentation I have for any of my equipment.

    If it were me I would run a lineout from your pre to the line level in of the DD. Then use the preouts for your 803S. Doing this will set your HP fitter at 80hz/6db. You'll need to experiment with the LP filter. I would start at 70hz and go down from there.

      805S + Sub = 803S?
      by tboooe
      Hi, I would like to get more bass and more overall body and fullness out of my setup. Currently I have the 805S and I am thinking about either adding a Velodyne dd12 or just upgrading and getting the 803S. Would getting a sub to complement my 805S give me what I am looking for or is the 803S the better...

      800D with Velodyne DD12 settings?
      by SRT-10 Viper
      I have 800D fronts with N802 rear speakers and an HTM2D center. I just purchased Velodyne DD12 (wanted to go 18" but wife said no more large speakers! 8O ). For HT, I have a Denon 5085. How should I set up my speakers? Should I go Large on all speakers Or, should I set the speakers (some or all)...

      SVS PB13-Ultra VS. Velodyne DD12
      by SoundEngine355
      Hi,

      I'm down to two subwoofers.

      SVS PB13-Ultra VS. Velodyne DD12

      Pros and Cons I can think of:

      1. SVS is $500 cheaper
      2. Velodyne is smaller, SVS is double the size
      3. SVS goes lower according to the tests.
      4. Velodyne...
