Can't be both 60Hz and large, and if you are talking about the center speaker, DO NOT SET TO LARGE.

Hate the term ‘Large”.Wish component manufacturers would use "Full range". Full range better expresses the fact you want to send full range frequencies to that channel. For the Supercenter XXL, which for sure doesn’t act “Small”, it doesn’t want full range frequencies sent to it. So “Small” it has to be labeled to set crossovers from it to appropriate large (full range) front speakers.

My experience with the SCXXL is that setting crossovers something in the 60-80 HZ range is a good place to start. Mine are at 80 HZ and probably staying there..

Terminology... too bad the labels weren’t consistently “full range” for channels you wanted to send full range to, and something like “set crossover” for channels you wanted to cross to full range fronts. Wishful thinking.

In any case, Chuckinator, enjoy your SCXXL! You may want to try various settings from 60 to 80 HZ. It’s an amazing speaker! Whatever works best for you!

Ha ha. I was thinking of wine, liquor beer...but for those "real men" and ladies, ice tea is a good compromise.
Seriously, any drink is good with GET speakers.

Chuckinator...following up on the above comments. I agree with the others, you do not want the SuperCenter XXL set to "large" or "full range". Set it to small so that the preamp or receiver does not send the low low frequency to the XXL. At loud volumes or movies with lots of bass explosions and other noise you don't want it to try to do something it was not intended to do.

My room acoustics program set it as 40 Hz and I over rode it and tried 60 and 80 Hz. For my room and my preference, 80Hz was better....besides that is also Dolby's recommendations. I saw you were home alone and were going to experiment. Let us know what you settled on.

I truly wish that GET included Sandy's Tips with the manual and that the dealers would tell you that Sandy's Tips are on the web site and are a great starting point to optimize your system.

So how are you loving your system?
