My Sub is set at 120
Car sub. Fosgate he2 12
Freq. response 28-200

Ya ya, I have not gotten my Power Sound yet.
That's next, may be on my next tax return. Wife has approved it, just need the funding.
 
Ideally you would measure the response of the speakers in your room and choose crossover settings based on the in-room bass performance rather than a spec sheet. If you don't want to go down that path, then I would set the crossover points about 1/3 a octave higher than the bass limit in the specification.

So, for the Monitor 11 towers, set the speakers to "small" with the crossover set to approximately 65Hz. For the CC-370, "small" and 120Hz. For the Mini Monitor, "small" and approx. 73Hz. The Monitor 11 could be lower, like 60Hz or 55Hz if you feel they have great bass in your room.
 
I will have to do it the second way. My laptop does not have a mic output to take measurements, I wish it did. I forgot to make sure it had one.
I will set them their at lest its a place to start.
 
if you think you want to tinker to get perfection, you may want to look into a USB based mic solution, or use your smart phone.
 
Flint,

I will look into the usb one.

Darn the Marantz, dose not have the ability to hit those numbers. All even numbers. At some point I need to get a different crossover. What would I need to get?
 
What values can you get on the Marantz?

This isn't rocket science, just close but never lower than the rated bass response.
 
Dude it is rocket science lol

I got close to your numbers 70 Main
120 center
80 mini

all whole number vales, that all end with zero
