Do I set the M80 crossover at 40hz, the VP150 at 80hz, and the QS8 at 100hz?

Each of those speakers have responses that are close to flat at those points, and I like the idea of stereo bass from the mains (the triple crossover was a big reason for buying the 950, even though the speakers I had back then didn't utilize it).

I would think that the lower I can cross each one over, the less likely I am to have bass localization, and the better the overall imaging would be. MANY others have advised me that either ALL speakers should be crossed at either 80hz or 100hz (at the highest)or that speakers should be crossed well above their -3db point. I do not see the point in either of these views. Just looking for good reasons either way...most argue because "that's how they did it" and can't give supporting reasons.


Thanks Kevin
