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

What are your exact settings for volume and low pass filter on your SVS sub?
Original poster here. We're starting to get a lot of variety now. I forgot to mention I have a bright, large, complex room and I listen to a variety of musical genres and route films through my system. If I turn up the volume past -18 or so, ther...

Thanks, Doyle. Your info is helpful. My post is basically about getting a bit more peace of mind. I can see I'm in the same ballpark as you.  
ATC buying advice
Since I already had an integrated amp I really liked, with a lot of juice, I got a pair of passive SCM40s and a couple of SVB-3000 subs. I’m happy with this set-up. It feels like there are diminishing returns for me by going up the product line.  
Horns with good timbre and tonality?

Full range stand mounted speakers

Best speakers for classic rock
I”d get whichever used ATC floorstander you can afford. Built like tanks, sound like live music, go loud with very low distorsion, not colored. Get a sub if necessary.

have only speaker level out to sub ... svs micro3000?
SVS is very helpful when contacted. I agree that this is the way to go.  
what speakers do you consider "energetic"?
ATC. Sounds live at volume.  
How to prevent visitors from touching your system
Electrified fence and two guard dogs.  
High end speakers at low volume
The Loki is a very inexpensive experiment, easily resold. If that works for you, think of all the money you’ll save for some other upgrade someday.

I like my Moon Mind.  
Bass- at what frequency does it change from sounding like a string to just a low tone?
The only places for the subs are just inside the main speakers, or just outside the main speakers. I have them just inside simply because that makes it easier to walk around the array, given some other room elements. One of the reasons I got the ...
