    Bass Management -- Help Me.

    Hi...I'm new to the club and finally got the system setup last weekend. However, I'm still pretty confused about Bass Management.

    Does this setup seem correct given the current state of 1066 firmware? Is there an alternative configuration that might sound better? Is there an impact to performing bass management after delay adjustments for a smallish (14x15x9) room?

    SACD Player
    DVD-Audio Player
    Rotel RSP-1066
    Sony TA-P9000ES
    Outlaw ICBM
    Rotel RMB-1075
    About 12 zillion interconnects (41!)

    1. DVD-A and SACD are switched through the TAP.
    2. 1066 uses TA-P9000 Bypass.
    3. TA-P9000 output goes into ICBM
    4. ICBM Set to crossover bass at 60 Hz for Left/Right main. Rest of speakers at 120 Hz. (small satellite speakers). Recombine off.
    5. TA-P9000 Output to ICBM.
    6. ICBM LFE out goes to subwoofer.
    7. L/R/C, L/R Surround to RMB-1075.
    8. RSP-1066 Speaker setup set to all large.

    Take care.
    Howard

    Bass Management...what's a person to do?
    by Andrew Pratt
    There seems to be a lot of talk lately on what bass management should or should not be doing. It also seems that there are a lot of assumptions being made about what, where and how this BM should be invoked. I came across a few links that are interesting and suggest that the problem isn't with X but...

    best way to connect ICBM to 1066 w/ new firmware?
    by Chris3G
    As per Dre J's bass management reports and solutions, the best way to connect the 1066 and an ICBM (not including 5.1 inputs) is to set the sub to "off" in the 1066 menu setup, sending LFE bass to the front channels, and then letting the ICBM sort it out. The downside to this setup is the...

    Analog vs Digital Bass Management
    by Eric_C
    I've had my setup for just about a year now and I'm amazed I'm just finding this out.

    Ever since I bought my Yamaha RX-V2600 and Deftech 7002's I've been disappointed in the 2 channel audio. I have the match center and rears also.

    It always sounded hollow and lacking bass....
