Still on the great speaker search, just playing around with the set-up on my elite vsx-54, and dreaming about completing my system, when a question occurs to me.
If I am going to set the cross-over in my receiver to the "thx recommended" 80 hz, why should I consider large floorstanding speakers as opposed to bookshelf style? I can select large for my front speaker and still send a full range of frequencies to my L/C/R, but do I really want drivers from my sub and fronts reproducing the same frequencies? It wold seem to me that the drivers would have some differences in the tone or voicing that may not match.
