Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver?

I am thinking about buying 2 Rythmik F12 Signature subwoofers.  I have an ARCAM AVR550 receiver and I need to find out how to set up these subwoofers without using DIRAC.  Rythmik has a 30 day return policy and I want to find out if I like them before I pay $600 to have someone calibrate my system using DIRAC.

Just buy a pair of these and you will be happy. VTF-3 MK5 HP Subwoofer
They are easy to set up and sound great for 2 channel or HT listening.

I have KEF R3 L/R and dual Rythmik F12SE's integrated with my Yamaha A2080 AVR.

I connect the Rythmiks to the subwoofer (LFE) outs (front, back).

They are in use for movies and music if I am in any mode except Yamaha's "Pure Direct."  I'm pretty sure Arcam would have similar selections as you mentioned. 

They are excellent subs.The bass blends in perfectly with music with my R3's. I set then up with the basic AVR settings from their quick set up guide which is easy to follow.  But they have many options for connectivity including speaker line in, etc.  :)

Ataraxia,

I am glad to hear from someone who owns a pair of Rythmik F12 SE's.  It sounds like they might not be as difficult to set up as I have been told.  How did you decide to buy the Rythmik's?  I personally think their Direct Servo technology is quite advanced.  Good to know they do not sound boomy.  I would imagine they can dig deep down when needed.

Could you call me at 720-298-9232?
