Thanks for tips, Paskal!
Yah my onkyo receiver cannot set the crossover individually. I should probably go by that setting, cause my boston speakers frequency has a limit of 150hz-200hz.. hmm would it somehow underutilized my tower speaker since its output can be in lower hz?

Would it be better to get another receiver?

Because of the limit of the speaker then there will be gap in between the cross over frequency. Some information of the audio is missing

My beginner setup

TV : Normal 40" Sony LED TV
AV Receiver : Onkyo TX-SR508
Home Theatre Set : Jamo S 626 HCS Home Cinema System
Front Speaker: Jamo
Center Speaker: Jamo
Subwoofer: Jamo SUB 250 has built-in 250 watt amplifier
Surround: Jamo
Cable : Monster cable for both speaker & Subwoofer

I feel that my setup is not right, i use the MIC to auto setup. I feel the sound not much power ? The subwoofer is heavy, those firing gun sound is soft. Voice talking also soft. I have no idea how to set those frequency, i just press on auto setup. Any sifu here can guide ? The home theatre is on my living room and the surround i just place it on my tv console.

Thanks in advance

When you do auto calibration you must take into consideration of the sound within your living room. That will make the calibration not accurate, unless is very quiet. Maybe can try doing in like late night where everyone is sleep and no noise. Anyway, placing the surround speaker on the console is not correct. Surround is meant to be at the back of your sitting position or the sound will be weird.
