TUNING Sub - Speaker/GenesisV. Anyone?


I have a pair of GEN-Vs (with active subs powered by separate amp) and am having trouble tuning. The subwoofers' amp allows you to set the subwoofer cut-off frequency (up to 120Hz) as well as, subwoofer (relative) volume, and phase (the GEN Vs fire front & back, phase invert).
Anyone out there with sub-woofer -> speaker tuning experience? My main power amp is a Symphonic LIne RG7.

Hi,

Try your sub volume at 30 and your high pass at 16 and
your low pass between 85 -90. And phase at 180. Give that a shot for
starters and then tweak from there if you want. That
is where I am at right now and find it right for
my room.

Good luck,
Bob
Steve,

I also had mine about 9' apart as I alway like my speakers
spread apart about that distance. But the Gen V's sound
better 6-7' apart with no toe in. If you keep them a 9'
toe them in over each shoulder, if not you will not get
any imaging at all.
BTW... I notice your settings are very close to my final settings.
Remember it is hard to leave these alone with so many
controls, but try!
Every once in awhile you will feel the urge to change
due to different recordings, but I'm sure you will alway's
return to your initial starting points.

I now own Wisdom Adrenalines which have the same basic
crossover functions and am now retweaking all over again.

Does it ever end?? ;o) (Hope not)
