| Re: Definitive Tech Owner's Thread
If it were me (and I have large powered towers, just not DefTech) I would first try fronts large with sub on, then try fronts small with sub on. See what sounds best at the primary listening position. I wouldn't try to send LFE to the mains at all ever. It was always meant to be a discrete channel.
Even though my powered mains are good as gold down to 25 Hz I have always prefered the sound quality I get with them set as small and a crossover to a corner-located subwoofer set at around 80Hz. There are many threads on many forums debating this issue; but after having tried every possible configuration I decided small fronts w/ sub sounded best, even with big (such as my Infinity Interlude IL-60) powered towers. Just my humble opinion. Oh, and by the way, I want to stay thread relevant. My sub is an ancient DefTech PF-1500 with gloss black top. Using BFD it's shown me an honest 18Hz! With who knows how much THD!
