How do you set your bass management? Is it LFE or LFE + Main. For years I thought I understood what the LFE + Main but realised after reading  this article (https://subwoofer101.com/setting-up-your-gear/large-vs-small-lfe-main-double-bass-etc/ ) that I completely misunderstood it. I always thought it?s a BIG NO to go for LFE + Main but after reading this article I think there?s merits to setting up bass management that way. My understanding is that you need the following to do it:
1. A beefy power amp to drive your speakers to their lowest frequency range without breaking a sweat
2. Set up your fronts to Large and set the crossover around what your fronts? lowest frequency range is

Is there anyone that is doing it this way and or what is your experience about young this route?
