I am having problems integrating additional subwoofers to my trition cinema system. I have the following components:

2 x Trition Two
1 x SuperSat 60c
4 x Supersat 3
2 x Power Sound Audio XS30SE
Emotiva XMC-1 Processor
Emotiva XPA2
Emotiva XPA5

I've tried setting the system to large + subwoofer but then I only get the added LFE in movies. Alternatively, I've tried to set the Triton Two's to Small with 80hz crossover but weird things are happening. Also, I'm not sure why having the additional subs at 180deg phase boosts output.

Are my subwoofers interacting with the triton two passive radiators?

I am attaching a diagram maybe it will help?

Thanks for posting Tritonboca,
I am just gonna offer a guess here, but no idea if it is right, the Moderator Dude will probably have to give you the real answer.
But I have been reading up on the Emo XMC-1 as I am interested. But I see that it still does not have much in the way of room correction, specifically the DIRAC which is "coming soon". It could be that is what you need to integrate the subs and that without it the XMC-1 MIGHT be limited in bass management.
But please report back when you get the problem sorted out and tell us what worked?
And, if you don't mind, I cannot find a review ANYWHERE of the XMC-1. Can you tell me what it sounds like playing in what looks like a VERY similar home theater to mine?
I really want to know about sound quality with music. And ability to control room correction needs?
I hope you can get it worked out soon
Happy Listening,
God Bless,
Wayne
God bless the child that's got his own.

There isn't really an easy way to integrate outboard subs with Triton Twos, but, the best way to do so will be to run LFE cables to all four sub inputs (use Y cables at each sub and run over to the adjacent Triton Two input is probably easiest) and still set L/R main to large and sub to yes. If LFE-only to the subs is not acceptable, you can also try setting the Tritons to small and setting a 40Hz crossover (still 120Hz on the SuperSats), so the subs will be playing all center and surround below the crossover plus LFE channel). Any yes Wayne, a good room correction system would probably help properly integrate.
