Setting up a new HT in the basement family room. Primary system for music is upstairs. FR system for predominantly HT, minimal music.

Like Yamaha receivers, and deciding on model at present. Needs and budget are modest ($300 or so) and looking at the closeout HTR 56xx vs. the new HTR 57xx.

Wondering about the potential difference I might find with the change from a fixed LFE of 90Hz on the 56xx vs variable on the 57xx.

Speakers are also modest AR setup with an 8" SW. center and sats have 4" drivers.

All comments or additional consideration appreciated.
