In the fourth and final part of my miniDSP 2x4 HD video guide series, I'll go over getting your subwoofers and main speakers (the front left and right) integrated properly with each other so you get the best crossover response in your room. This process includes measuring the main speakers while the subwoofers are muted, and then measuring the subwoofers with the mains disconnected, each at various crossover points. Then, we'll use REW's alignment tool to calculate the exact delay we can use within the miniDSP to get the smoothest response. I'll also go over how to ensure you have the best crossovers set for your center and surround speakers, as well as what to expect now that you have everything dialed in!
