Did you try a different composite sub wire connection?? I bought a fancier y cable and composite(rca) wire as well
All of my amps also have a ground connection so i did that as well, plus the volume level of the sub could be too high and it is distorting??
I am really not fond of Yamaha amps (highest refurbs usually), so i am not really familiar with there setups or there real channel distribution, but i always test sound levels with Pink Floyds the Wall album and put the Intro to the Wall song on and adjust accordingly, but my experience i have blown alot of center channels playing and testing with it to find the center channel i prefered
PS.. the large setting is for L&R front speakers that can handle bass load, and will take stress off your sub woofer, or if you are using better speakers and lousy sub that is a better setting, but if you are using a good sub reverse that, again my opinion with a sub being non directional sound, is better for boom affects in a room
Good luck Skiz
I would check out AVS forums and read between the lines on the information... There is usually some good feedback on all different equipment there..
Or if you have some fancy stereo shops in your neighborhood (not best buys or big box stores), i would check them out just for shits and giggles
And to be honest i think sound is what your ears like, there is so much equipment and stuff on the market today it is really what you think sounds good and go from there...Depending what you are looking for in a sound can vary what you buy or like, plus what size room you have and if you want to wake the neighbors at night..
Again Good luck Skiz..
PS. if you liked what you had before(nothing blown!!) you could always put it in a different room, and have another surround setup, sometimes selling stuff and getting shit for it, and then having to replace it again for another room is not always smart, especially with speakers you have found that you like the sound quality....
