Use Subwoofer crossover or processor crossover?


In your home theater setup, do you use the crossover in your processor or do you use the subwoofer crossover? Do you disable one and just use the other?

I use a Sunfire Theater Grand II processor and a Velodyne DD-18 subwoofer.

My whole system is posted below.

I'd like your opinions on which one you use and why.

...thanks, mitch

I would use the unit with the best DSP to remedy problems with the bass nodes.
Yada spake: "I would use the unit with the best DSP to remedy problems with the bass nodes." Yup but that's another issue.

Nodes, modes, notes? :-)

Since you havea DD18 that makes things more difficult!
with a typical sub I would say Processor would be the one to set the crossover and slope... but since you have a velodyne with microphone.... you need to use the process with the velodyne which will allow you to integrate the volumn and everything (including crossover) by using the microphone that is included.... Follow their manual to the "T".. your results will be pretty close to amazing!

Synergy or Integration is key!

PS: the DD18 is awesome for movies!!!
