My SC-09TX Receiver have MCACC setting and the JL E110 have Phase control setting. And I prefer the sound quality with out turning on those features. I place the left and right main speakers 9 feet apart with very slight toe in and 2 feet apart from back wall and side wall and placed the sub next to right main speaker. I set my main speaker setting to small and the crossover for the sub at 80hz on the receiver. The Bel Canto CD2 is strictly use as a CD transporter, the six Wolfson WM8741 D/A converter from the SC-09 TX receiver is use as the main D/A Converter, the MC 452 Amp drive's the Totem Element Fire speakers. The Totem Element Fire does not have any crossover in them except for the high pass filter to protect the tweeter and everything blends in nicely. It's music to my ears. The SC-09TX have plenty of power to drive the Totem but I prefer the sound quality from the MC452. The MC452 stays cool to the touch even pro long use of 5 hrs or more.
