Revel F-30/ large or small


Does anyone have input as to which way to operate the Revel F-30s in a home theater system. I am currently running them "full range" and they sound fine.I like the nice, tight, clean bass they reproduce! However at "loud" volume levels, I am concerned that I may be over driving them. Any thoughts?( Most of my time is spent watching movies with my wife although am learning to appreciate good 2 channel music. We do have a sub for the LFE.) Thanks

Wow!!! I sure do appreciate all of your input. I believe that the bass is "tighter" when I run the Revels "large". However, there seems to be a lack of deep bass for the DD/DTS movies.As far as amps go, I use a parasound with 220 watts into 8 ohms and about 320 into 4 ohms. Based on what I am hearing and what your saying, it sounds like I would be better off using the "Small" setting. Thus the question remains, am I not loosing low end when listening to 2 channel music? Once again, thx for your advice. ( I use an older Krell HTS processor that only allows LRG or SML settings, with no other bass mgmt)
Yes that will work. With the Krell preamp it must be set to small or large. I guess I can switch back and forth. Once again thanks for taking the time to rply.
