where do you cross over your ht setup

hello. i am just wondering where everybody else crosses over there ht system at. thx says 80hz with speakers set to small. some speaker co. say set front mains at 60hz the rest set at 80hz set to small. i even read one speaker co. in a reveiw say 20-30hz and set speakers to large. if you are driving a full range speaker system with a stand alone powered sub what do you fellow audiogoners find best. also when using a spl meter do you set up your system at 75? thanks.

I use the THX 80htz. I don not want to blow up my $4000 Vienna Acoustics speakers. The sub. can take all the punishmint the Hulk can dish out. Set the speakers for small and use the spl meter to set up the room. I have found the the big bass slam actually gets a little old after a while and listen to movies at a lower volume than when the HT was new.
Have fun
