Thanks for your input, guys. Following your suggestions I now own a RS
SPL and have chased USENET threads on "Newbie for Subwoofers" and have
put some light on a murkey subject for me.

One follow-up question: the documentation for my satellites (JBL)
states that the optimum crossover is 120Hz but barring an exact match
to set the ARV's crossover at the nearest _lower_ setting, i.e.,
100Hz. I now know (thanks again) that going the opposite direction, up
to 150Hz, would result in localization. My question is what happens to
the sound between 100 and 120? Do I "lose" that bass, or is there
generally enough slack (stretch?) for the sub and the satellites to
carry the load without either moving into distortion?

Tim
