I don't think I'm getting full bass power to the Triton 2's from the NAD T757 (other speakers are Sat 50 center at 100 HZ crosssover and 4 Invisa 525's at 80 HZ crosssover). The Triton 2's are set up as LARGE, subwoofer is OFF, no LFE leads to Tritons, just speaker wire. Bass dial on the Tritons is at 10 o'clock. All other speakers are set to SMALL. AUDYSSEY set-up wants to put the center and surrounds/rears at 130 HZ, but they don't sound as mellow at those settings.
In Sandy Gross's latest version of "set-up tips" for Triton 2's and 3's, he mentions that some receivers roll off the LFE output when it goes to speakers, to protect the speakers and/or receiver, and then it is better to add LFE cables to the Tritons, turn subwoofer ON in speaker set-up, and leave Tritons on LARGE setting, to avoid the LFE rolloff. Has anyone added LFE leads to Triton 2's from NAD T757's and seen a performance improvement, especially bass? Would the NAD T787, with more power also avoid LFE rolloff?
Thanks!
