[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 1074772, member: 561023"] As you've stated it allows [I]up to[/I] 10dB boost @ 45Hz I'll assume that it's variable, so, that adjustment gives you from 0 to 10dB of bass boost centered @ 45Hz And like squeak stated - there's no real formula for settings those crossover points. It'll be all about listener preference. Set it where it sounds best to you. The 24dB/octave slope simply means that the crossover has a fairly steep slope and will sharply attenuate frequencies outside of the limit you set. No, I think you're now confusing the crossover points with the input sensitivity, more commonly known as the gain adjustment. If you increase the high pass (I assume by this you're meaning moving the crossover point to a higher frequency) then all you've done is narrowed the frequency range of the source material being sent to those drivers. The same will be true of moving the low-pass cutoff to a lower frequency. You'll narrow the frequency range being sent to your bass drivers. If you're hearing 'too much' highs (as in they're too loud to complement the rest of the system well) then there's some adjustment to be made on your gains. BEFORE I GET FLAMED ~~ No, your gains are not a volume control.
