Title: Recommended bass settings for z-5500
Post by: dale77 on January 08, 2012, 02:44:47 am
Hi there,

The Logitech z-5500 amp has 5.1 analog inputs, and (apparently) a fixed 150hz crossover. I'm keen to have my stereo music mixed out to 5.1 through this amp, how should I setup JRSS and bass management optimally?

Everything below 150Hz from 5 channels will be sent to the sub by the Logitech amp I guess. I further guess that with default 5.1 settings JRSS will create a subwoofer audio stream below 60Hz. Does this duplicate/increase bass in the output? I would guess so, assuming some or all of the original sub-60Hz audio is being left in the 5 channels by JRSS...

How does the JRSS bass lowpass work with the other channels? Does audio below the lowpass appear in the 5 channels as well? Is this a good thing? :-)

Should I try a 150hz or 120Hz lowpass in JRSS?

Should I remove bass below 120Hz from the 5 normal channels in bass management?

Thanks!

Dale
