[QUOTE="bikinpunk, post: 2926015, member: 568114"] I'm assuming you're only talking about bass boost for you subwoofers (cause some people have this option on their front-stage channels). In short, it doesn't really matter. However, if you really want to set everyting up right, then I wouldn't fool with it. Why? Because in theory and practice you should set your gain to how you will mostly play the music. If you set the gain with a bass boost, then fine. However, you can get the same results by setting the gain higher without boost. I wouldn't do either, but that's your choice. *assuming you know about setting gains for no clipping* There's no general "optimum" for these settings. It's really all based on how you like your music. If you want more midrange then you give that a bump. If you like highs, give that a bump and so on. Just set it how you like it. If you hear distortion, back it down. [/QUOTE]
