I understand your concerns, You have to remember that the crossover setting is not a shut off of the frequencies below that point but rather a roll off of them. So there will still be plenty of frequencies down to at least 60hz before its dies off. The human voice does not go below 100hz anyhow. So for listening to music in two channel direct mode the crossover is disabled anyhow as in most cases the sub is off for that setting.



This should not be an issue as the PB13 is way more capable of doing the job than any full frequency speaker. and by having the bass going to both could actualy caus you more grief.



Ideally a test tone sweep is best as you can hear the sweep pass through the 80hz area and you will be able to tell if you have to much or to little. DVE has this sweep on the DVD I dont remember if Avia has it.
REW is ideal for this as it not only has this feature but shows you on a graph what you have.
Yep. I thought my x over at 60 was good util i got a setup disc,Avia. Then i heard it drop of the end of a table and reset it to 80. Nice and smooth.
