Hi!

In the crossover frequency (expert setting) what should I choose - between 50 hz to 200 hz?

What should be the D-RANGE MID, HIGH or Off.

Thanks

DRC should be OFF. It compresses the dynamic range and is meant to be used when you have to listen at low volume, so that you can still hear dialogue clearly, but explosions and such like will not be very loud.

The crossover point depends on your speakers/subwoofer. If you have THX speakers select 80hz, if you have large floorstanding speakers try 50hz.With very small speakers you might need 100hz, but 80hz should be ok in most setups. Basically if 80hz is selected then all bass below 80hz will be redirected to the sub. 80hz is considered (controversially), the highest you can go without being able to detect the position of the subwoofer.
