Here is my problem. I have a yamaha rxv1300 reciever, paradigm monitor7 fronts, paradigm cc370 center, paradigm titan surrounds, paradigm cc170 rear center, and paradigm ps1000 sub. My question is should I set the monitor 7 and cc370 to a large or small speaker, I have been told to do both ways. Both of them can easily handle the extra bass, but I have been told that your midrange will stand out better if you set your fronts and center to small and just let the sub do all the bass.

Thank you.

if you want bass out of both, i was told to wire it this way

set the speaker to "large" and wire it to your subwoofer's speaker inputs (not the rca jack) then run the speakers out of the high pass of the subwoofer. .....someone correct if i misworded is!

you could do it both ways. It's all a matter of preference, really. It's just easier on the amp to let the sub handle the lower frequencies.

If you have power SW, then set all your speakers to small. Also, RCA jack will give a better signal then speaker's wire. Set Bass to SW only.

How big is your room size? I got 13 x 16, and above is my setup.
