    Red face My new system

    Hello there here is what I just got

    1 pair of RTi8 for front
    1 CSi5 for center
    2 pairs of FXiA4 for side and back
    1 PSW 404 for sub

    1 Onkyo TX SR 707 Receiver

    I know how to connect all of it

    My question is about crossover points, what should I do and how should I set them is pretty confusing for me

    H E L P .............

    Did I mention the room is 10 x 11

    Did you read your manual? Not trying to be snotty, just stating the obvious.

    Welcome to Club Polk!

    Refer to the Onkyo manual and run the Audyssey set up microphone. It will adjust most of what you're asking about. It's not that hard just a couple of menu items!

    Check crossover settings when done by cycling through the channels with the remote.

    (In general, you want your crossover points to be around 80hz--Audyssey may see the Rti-8s as large speakers [maybe even the CSi5] and set them to 40-60 hz, but you may want to up that to 80hz when it's done--see how it sounds first!).

    Definitely start with the sub at 80hz (you want to be below 100 hz so as to make sure that the sub cannot be easily 'located' by the ear).
