Crossover for music and movies


Hello, I recently bought a Marantz NR1506 and went through the Audyssey setup process; tweaked the settings a little bit from there, and it's sounding great. My problem is there is no crossover set on the Front L/R speakers (floor standing), which is good for music, but I would think for movies I would want a little bit of HPF on those as to not interfere with the sub.

Maybe this is a stupid question but is there a way to have different settings for music / movies, or stereo / surround?

Thanks

The manual for your receiver appears to be quite extensive including an appendage for the Audyssey equalization as it pertains to home theater use. After a cursory look I didn't see the ability to set up multiple equalization settings which is not to say it doesn't exist.

I find the ability to adjust the subwoofers parameters by remote control from the listening position in my music only system incredibly useful with some recordings. The Velodyne Digital Drive Plus line of subwoofers offers six multipal preset controls. They can also be used for a separate HT or music only system connected at the same time but used by one or the other while in use. There may be other brands that do this that I'm not aware of.
