Compatibility between speakers and sub.
The SVS guideline is 10 Hz above whatever the -3 roll off is. They weren’t able to be helpful around addressing the minus six question. Also, this seems as though it’s a bit of an arbitrary call since I’ve seen conflicting information from sources... 
Compatibility between speakers and sub.
OP here. Thank you for all your help. One thing that still confuses me is that my speakers list their low frequency roll off when it is -6 dB instead of the -3 that other people use. That is 48 Hz. Should I guess what the -3 rolloff would be or us...

I bought SVS SB 3000 subs and I’m quite happy. I use the preamp out of my musical fidelity amp. Thanks everyone for your help.  
-6db vs -3db speaker roll-off for sub crossover calculation?
Thanks, y’all.  
-6db vs -3db speaker roll-off for sub crossover calculation?
I know, I know. It sounds weird. Let’s call it post sub calibration trauma syndrome—PSCTS. It renders me insecure without external guidance, at least to start.  Since I posted, I found a frequency drop off chart from a site that has allowed me to... 
-6db vs -3db speaker roll-off for sub crossover calculation?
P.S.-- my ears have not been reliable about setting subs in the past, and I currently lack any tech to get objective reality figures..  
I’m about to push the button to get 2 SVS 3000 micros to add to ATC SCM40s.
That’s a good idea

I talked to SVS and my wife. The former convinced me to upgrade to 2 SB3000s because of my large, complex room. The latter begrudgingly agreed to an experiment with the bigger speakers, reserving veto power. The best place to put them would entail...

unfortunately, anything bigger would require rearranging furniture and switching wives. I had hoped that adding two of these would make a big difference. We don’t need the explosions and rumblings from movies, we’re just looking for lower frequenc...

Since these are side firing subs, aiming one side at the wall would mean the other would be firing toward the listening position. Is that what you mean?

I would mostly  call it  a large room with a vaulted ceiling, but one of the speakers has a short throw to the glass wall while the other goes out into a lot more space. There’s seven corners in the main part with a hallway going off one end  an...

Thanks for reminding me about the break-in period. In my excitement over new gear, i forget several important things, such as this and turning off my Loki. Unfortunately, there is absolutely nowhere for the subs to be besides where they are--peek...

OP here. The subs arrived today and so far so good. I’ve been  fiddling  for an hour or two, but most of the adjustments don’t seem to make much difference one way or the other, other than the low crossover point and the volume. My system definit...

When you used the SVS app to set them up, does it adjust both of them together or do you have to do them separately and get them to match?

I already had an amp i liked when i bought my speakers used for only $3,300.
