What is the best way to set up two KEF KC62 with a Mcintosh labs mx123 processor


Hello everyone.

I am not as subwoofer person and have in the past been fine with using my main speakers Songs Faber Cremona  for base.  However, as new content is coming out with Dolby Atmos and 3D object oriented surround effects, I decided to update my Pre-Processor and also get two small (because of space) KEF KC62.  

CAN ANYONE RECOMMEND WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO SET THESE UP USING THE MCINTOSH MX123.

 

THANKS

After setting up your subs here is a video on managing bass with Audyssey:

 

1) Place your subwoofers in corners if possible. I like the drivers pointed at the wall about 2-3 inches away. Maybe front left corner, rear right corner.

2) Set the crossover on the sub at max or bypass, as the processor will handle the crossover. Set the phase at 0. Run the Audyssey setup as described on page 123 in the manual.

3) After the setup see how you like the integration.

Jorge, connect both subs to the pre-outs of the MX123 and audyssey will integrate them both. Don't use the LFE of the second sub.
