New subwoofer settings

    Hey all,

    Just took advantage of the richer sounds deal that is on offer for the Vector VW 8 powered subwoofer. So as soon as I got it I connected it to my Onkyo TX-SR308 and I have to say I'm less than blown away. I have to turn the volume up to full on the sub to really notice anything at all. I have gone into the amp settings and even up the db level on the sub there just to try and get a bit of noise out of it. So basically I'm wondering am I just expecting to much or is there settings on the sub I should be looking at. I don't know what the phase setting and stuff does on the sub so just left it off in accordance with the recommended settings on the instructions. Surely I shouldn't need to have the sub up full way to get any effect. Can anyone give any suggestions or point out anything I might be missing?

    Cheers guys.

    Have you set up the crossover setting correctly in your AV receiver settings?

    It should be set to crossover at 80Hz (or higher if your speakers are small) and also set your speakers to small.

    I would recommend a full reset and redo your Audyessy.

    Here is a link that explains nicely what is involved in setting up a sub correctly. LINKY
