Yes, the price in SG for the 5508 is tempting indeed. ronaldjoe was trying to poison me into getting one as well. smile.gif

Yes, you should go for it.
With your current super power amp and speakers, , it will be a killer combo.
Then you can pass the 4311 to me cheep cheep brows.gif whistling.gif

hi.. i bought a wharfedale sw150 and confused with the LPF settings and my amp settings...

currently my sub LPF have this option

85Hz
75Hz
65Hz
55Hz
45Hz
35Hz

LPF - On/Off

My amp settings

Speakers all set to Small
LFE - 120Hz

what is the best settings for the sub?
*
LPF off at the subwoofer side.
Let the avr do the bass management. It will send signals for the LFE from 120Hz and below to the sub.

hi guys~~

anyone facing pop sound from their sub when watching BR ripped DVDs in 5.1 DTS audio mode??

i had my sherwood amp controlling the x-over at 80hz... then my sub frequency turn to 150hz max to allow full control by amp. Sub volume is at half.

Also, there's this "Phase" option either Normal or Reverb i guess. Currently im on reverb. What's the difference between these?

btw, my sub is Rogers 10' RS-108 model.

is it because of the disc?? or its my configuration prob??

any advise is highly appreciated~ notworthy.gif

The phase switch is either Normal or Reverse 180 deg.
If you place the sub in front, in line with the main speakers, generally, most will set it to Normal.

As for the pop sound, is it the sub bottoming out at high volumes?
Try and listen at a lower volume and see if the problem recurs at the same point in the movie.
If it is consistently at the same point, even at a reduced volume, then it must be the file.

Also make sure all the connections are tight, including the power plug connector.

When listening to music you can either set Audyssey to Flat or ByPass L&R speakers.
See if you like the sound.
I usually set to ByPass L&R for music videos.

For such a large area, you will need a bigger sub with more power.
Also as you listen to music half the time, it more likely you would prefer a sealed sub for it's musicality.
What is your budget that you have set for the subwoofer?
IIANM, there is a pre-owned sealed SVS SB12-NSD for sale.
This will definitely be a good option.

You are sincere in your quest and tho' your English needs some polishing, you bear no grudge or malice notworthy.gif
