[QUOTE="Timber_MG, post: 33397, member: 18"] Simply, if you have very LF capable mains, let them run large, otherwise small. Letting the main speakers play lower has some large benefits ito multiple sources below the shroeder frequency evening out room mode excitement. Obviously the mains have to have the requisite balls and sealed systems with sufficient power handling have some huge benefits here btw for HT due to the driver excursion not increasing below Fb. For large rooms where the bass is less of a problem however the high-pass function is of great help and thus you will find THX Ultra / II grade speakers not specifically required to have much SPLmax below 80Hz (allowing 2 smaller high efficiency bass-mid drivers to do things a conventional floor-stander generally cannot as per Klipsch and others) [/QUOTE]
