Hi,

1: try setting the L/R fronts to NOT play anything under 80 HZ. This will give your speakers and your receiver more headroom, and will probably remove a lot of the (gain/phase) problems below 80hz.
Is this a common feature in receivers? I don't think there is any way I can tell my Yamaha RX-V1400 to not play anything below a certain freq like 80hz. I have them set to Small, and have the xo at 80hz, but it would be great to have it cut the lows off sharper if anything.

It does have an EQ that I could probably use to set 60hz very low and maybe 80hz too. But if I engage its graphic EQ then I cannot use its parametric EQ auto-calibration, and I need that for it to balance the high end (unrelated to the sub).
