Now that i've pretty much figured out my avr, here are the settings i use...
by default, all speakers are set to "Large" and 100hz, rear speakers are set to "Bi-Surround" and they are -6db

DTS LD'S: normal, sometimes switched to 7.1 to enhance the sound, such as the shadow
AC-3 LD'S: normal
AC-3 LD'S: EX decoding manually turned on
most Dolby Surround titles: normal.

however, certain titles, like the Star Wars "Faces" are set to 200hz and the subwoofer is raised a little.
Movies that had a Split Surround 70mm release: PLII, 150-200hz and subwoofer raised a little.

Why do you set your xover to 200Hz?

100Hz is a little high for large speakers....
On stage it is good with top and lowfrequencie cabinets (not with subwoofers)
In my cinema setup, my speakers are playing full range ;)

my surrounds are small, and my centre also has a small woofer. it helps to improve bass response.

certain movies were in the Baby Boom and Split surround format, hence 150-200hz.
