He he, 1hz. I'm sure it's more like 8 or so they start rolling off because of the hardware limitations in the SMS1 EQ I use which i've updated with recent software to prevent distortion or 20hz roll off issues.

Hmmm...that would be the high-pass (although I take it you don't actually have a high-pass in place, aside from the hardware rolloff). I was talking about a low-pass filter, ie. 60 Hz, 70 Hz, 80 Hz, etc. and at what slope.

Sorry, ha ha, had a few drinks when I was writing my reply!!! Tis the season for consumption of happy drinks, lol. In any event they are crossed over at 80hz from my reciever which I think is 24db/octave but not sure on that.

No, the SMS1 allows you to place the infrasonic filter as low as 1hz but i'm sure there is no difference between setting it at 5 or 8 or so hz because of the hardware roll off.
