I don't mind helping out fellow MOTMers at all. I run my Genelecs full-range. I run a seperate volume control on my console to the Sunfire with the crossover set at about 80 or 90 Hz. I have the Sunfire calibrated with the Genelecs so if I set the two volume controls at the same position the levels are matched. I keep the Sunfire underneath my console, some of my clients never even realize its there. There are absolutely no phasing problems and no loss of imaging whatsoever. I cannot often even tell whether the sound is coming from the Sunfire or the Genelecs once I get into the range of the crossover frequency. The biggest drawback is that if the sub is up too high, which is what my clients seem to want because they like the low end, then the bottom tends to end up to low in the mix. This is why I like to keep the sub level matched to the Genelecs, and always check the mix without the sub as well. The Sunfire is made by Bob Carver. It can deliver 2700 Watts on peaks due to the energy storing characteristics of the built in power amps supply. I'm sure I've never heard it anywhere near that! I value my hearing.
