I've successfully integrated MMGs with both Rythmik and Velodyne subs using Audyssey. It's amazingly effective and virtually idiot-proof, but I understand that it's not everyone's philosophical cup of tea. If that doesn't appeal to you, I'd suggest that you try to find a Velodyne SMS-1 sub controller. (They were roughly $400 new, so hopefully you can find a used one that's not too expensive.). This is a much more cumbersome set-up procedure than is Audyssey, but - once dialed in - it works extremely well. It will take some time, but IME - if you invest that time - you will very likely get essentially perfect integration from an SMS-1.
blending Magnepan MMG with SVS subwoofer
Hi everyone,I have been trying to use Magnepan MMG's with a SVS SB-1000 sub & I am having a hard time trying to get them to blend seamlessly,it seems I am having to adjust sub volume for everything I play,mostly rock & some jazz.Not really sure where to set crossover & phase control either,the manuals are not much help.My system is in a office about 13x16 & I am using a Anthem int. amp with plenty of power,the preamp outs are connected to the subs inputs,i use this system for mostly cds with a Oppo SE-83 player & Tascam BR-20 reel to reel recorder.I guess my question is where to start with the controls,the sub is about half way down side wall,the only place I can really put it.Any input would be great,thanks.
