GLM + 7370A + 8350A + 8351B for full range L/C/R?

GLM + 7370A + 8350A + 8351B for full range L/C/R?

When using SAM speakers for home theater, if I have 2x 8350A as my main Left/Right and one 8351B as my Center channel, all 3 can be connected to a single 7370A subwoofer and with GLM can be treated as "full range" speakers correct? So then I can tell my processor to send the L/C/R signal with no low frequency cut-off to the 7370A because GLM would have already determined all the necessary crossover points between the 7370A and 8350A. Just making sure this is feasible.

So, the question is: select the speakers as "Large" (with the subwoofer connected to the satelites) or "Small" (with subwoffer connected to the sub-out of the AV processor) ? You can try both. In the first case the cross-over will be determined from the speakers and in the second from the AV processor. In the second case, I don't know if GLM allows additional setting of the fcut-off requency.

Exactly. I'm thinking letting the GLM decide where the cross-over is because isn't that the core value of GLM as it knows my drivers better than any AVR!

You would do both, ideally. Pass the L/C/R channels through the 7370A so that you get an extended frequency response, but also attach your sub channel to the LFE input on the 7370A so that it gets used for any low frequency effects.
