xover settings for Avantgarde owners - survey.


Hi - I have been "playing" with different xover settings on my Unos and have found noticable differences in the mids (paricullary voices) at different positions.

I am curious to learn where do Avantgarde usres set the xover cut in the subs. I know this depends on the room size, amps used and even personal taste, at any rate - I am calling those who want to participate in this survey for 15 days and I will personaly post the results at the end of this thread.

Since there are also different Avantgarde versions and subwoofer models (and hoping I am not runing into a big mistake here) I suggest to report the xover setting at clock positions (eg - half way is 12PM).

This apply for all Avantgarde Uno and Duo owners and I will start the data thread - mine is set at 12PM.

Thanks

For the UNO, use an indicated setting of 190.

This isn't optional with different rooms...

It's what's needed for the SUB 225 to meet the UNO mid horn at the actual crossover point.

Level may be set to taste, but leave the crossover at around 190.

Everyone who's posted above, most of whom I know, have DUOs. 140 for DUOs.

190 for UNOs. Any lower and you'll lose cohesiveness and the sound will be weak in the power response region. As I posted above, 190 is pretty much non-negotiable on the UNOs.

FWIW - I do have a bit of experience with these speakers.
