How do I calibrate the speakers with YPAO? Do I have to set the subwoofer volume to max?

Subwoofer should be set to mid range. You will need the microphone included with the receiver to calibrate. The mic should be placed as centered in the room based on where you have your speakers and placed at a height comparable to listening level when sitting. The system will do the rest once you start the calibration program.

Bill, I doubt anything "went wrong", but the Yamaha may not deal with potential impedance differences between your main speakers and your sub. Luckily, Yamaha allows you to set up levels for each set of speakers (front, center, back, sub) from within the setup menus. Using the remote, do the following: setup -&gt; speaker -&gt; level -&gt; scroll down to "sub" and raise the level (default is flat (0db)) until you like how it sounds. hope this helps, gfd

Make sure all speakers are connected correctly, meaning positive with positive and negative with negative. Also the check receiver wattage specs with the selector capacity.

I have the exact same problem. Going to return for replacement. I happen to have the speakers from the c-3602 set. I'm going to try them and see if they are imbalanced too. That will tell me if its the speakers or not.

Dear Kyle. It's a pleasure to help you. About your question I will say that the sub working properly and these speakers are designed to resist distortion sound. For this reason, when you hear a song, you should raise the speaker volume so you can account for the difference. The levels of the sub must be the maximum and just can listen the real sound when the volume is high. I hope this review helps you better understand how great these speakers are. Regards Tomas

the source should be 7.1 i guess. else we can play a simulation of 7ch stereo. pl check if your DVD/BD is written as 7.1 ch? If its 7.1 ch recording and you are not getting 7.1 then check Speaker distribution. if everything is fixed per its position. Can use odyssey auto adjuster. finally, do you use anyother system which takes care of distribution of spound to speakers? ( like bose acoustimass?) check that too if it i s7.1 too. thanks

My experience is the opposite... too much solid, rich bass, so I keep the volume knob located on the subwoofer control panel turned down to about 15%. Surprising for such an inexpensive system. Assure your connections, assure the subwoofer volume is tuned up, try a different audio cable between your sound source and subwoofer, try a different sound source. If none of these things work, consider returning them for replacement.

Hey david I have the same unit. What you have to do is go to audio and find the hz. Turn the volume up as loud as you normally listen to and one at a time go threw the Hz adjustments. If you would like I can go out to my car and check which settings i have but i also have an amp and subwoofers hooked up. It does not have the simple bass and treble adjustments like factory stereo. This way is more presice and does increment small adjustments to your specific speakers and vehicle. Let me know if it helped!

Here is the answer that I got from Pioneer... it worked!Thank you for contacting Pioneer Electronics, Inc.Change the Subwoofer setting under SYSTEM SETTING>MANUAL SPEAKER SETTING>SPEAKER SET>FRONT SPEAKER TO LARGE, once the front speaker are set to large you can change the SW to PLUS, that will allow the subwoofer to be active with the stereo signal.

There is not a "high level" output on the unit. There is a "high level" input for older receivers that do not have a dedicated subwoofer output on them.

Try using your remote. Go to speaker settings and set speakers to match your set up. This can only be adjusted with your remote.

i sold this sub. incredibly awesome sub. and i kinda had your problem. you have to fine tune the sub with your receiver. distance settings, double bass setting if you have it. basically have your receiver get all the bass to go to the sub and amplify the sub through the receiver as well. if your not using a receiver, then your doing it wrong bro. otherwise just mess around with the settings on BOTH sub and receiver to find the perfect sound.

While I dont know your configuration, I can tell you that I have two subwoofers plugged in the single S/W port on the back of mine (I have a Y-Cable to split the power cords) I have Definitive Technology (BP-8060ST) Speakers plugged in for your reference.

I have not used a subsoofer with the Orb Mini-T -- only a FL + FR stereo setup ... but thinking of how odd it would be to have a sub remain at constant level regardless of how you adjusted the stereo speaker outputs I would presume so.

Mine also says it is 165W, but the bass is massive. I've got the dial on the back only turned up about 25%. Maybe you got a bad connector cord? Did you use the calibration microphone? Good luck!
