What are your exact settings for volume and low pass filter on your SVS sub?

With my ATC SCM40s—passive—I’ve set the volume on my SB3000s at 20 and the low pass filter at 58. The speakers go down to 48hz at -6db.

I have no frame of reference and feel insecure about my selections. It would be great to hear from other people about what works for them, although I know that it’s always apples and oranges because of the room factor, the amp, the different speakers, and all the rest.

I have 2) SB4000’s  paired with Wilson Tune-Tots. I have the SVS output levels set at -3, but the whole system is controlled by a XTA DSP unit, using Audiocore software installed on a laptop. Crossover points and volume levels will vary somewhat depending on the recording but with most recordings the low pass is set at 173 Hz and the high pass at 177Hz with the sub output level set at +2.5 dbu and main output set at + 8 dbu.

I also have 2) non SVS subs being used as satellite subs with their output level usually set at + 1.5 dbu and their low pass filter set at 78 Hz.
