Gonk,
I respect your opinion and remarks on the SMS-1. It's the preset 6 conclusion that I'm coming to, too, unfortunately (really wanted to have movie bass EQ'd by SMS, and Audyssey to simply pick the right crossovers, etc). I see you agree so I'll likely do that. It's really not that I ever want to leave the SMS-1 out of the equation, I just dont want to have Audyssey and SMS trip over each other.

However, more basic issue....its probably obvious once I get the product but why do I want to "disable the crossover on the SMS-1 before you do any setup anyway".? I need the SMS to be my crossover for my stereo setup cuz my front speakers are running full-range.
