GAME CHANGING SUBWOOFERS:
www.subwoofer101.com/best-subw...
Keep in mind that I am a ported subwoofer guy, and for those with sealed subs, you may want to run your crossovers lower than I do, as I found when I ran sealed. Sealed subs tend to be a little more powerful above 40 hertz, so in those cases running a lower crossover is a good idea.
In the "Audio/Volume" screen, consider setting the "Power On Level" to something like -40 db or quieter using the -79.5 to 18 db scale. I set mine at -50, and on this scale -50 db is quieter than -40 db. This should reduce the chance of blowing your speakers on startup.
On the 0-98 volume scale, I set it at 40 or quieter, and on this scale 30 is quieter than 40. You can also set the volume limit to keep the cops from knocking on your door when Junior is home alone, assuming Junior doesn't soon figure out how to change this setting.
To that point, you can also go into "General/Setup Lock" menu to stop others from trying to change your settings.
If you are trying to setup ARC (Audio Return Channel) Go to Video/HDMI Setup/HDMI Control/"On" and find the similar function on your TV.

Subwoofers should reproduce quality sound with authority throughout the humanly audible bass spectrum (20-100 hertz). Most ported subwoofers do not.

I'm watching this video again right now. I watch your videos several times a day at least 6 days/wk because they are very informative. I'm sitting on the couch with my tape measure comparing and adjusting distances with audyssey. Working on crossover points now. Keep up the good work. Your videos are a good blend of techy and non techy advice. Earlier in life, I did my fair share of touring with bands as a lighting designer. Had I known what I know and am learning now about audio, I would have chosen audio as my career. Just saying...This stuff is fascinating. Ok I'm babbling, back to crossover points.

Thanks for all of your videos. It's nice to see someone whose not slaved to the typical crossover orthodoxy. My system has a front array of RSL's CG5-CG25-CG5, Surrounds are CG3s and therr are four SVS Prime Elevation as F/R heights. The AVR is a Denon X3700 and the sub is an SVS PB-1000 Pro (one great piece of kit). Howard and Joe Rodgers had recommended setting the front speakers at 80 and the Surrounds at 90. After Audyssey did its thing, I did set the crossovers as 80 up front, 100 on the Surrounds and 80 for the Elevations. Because, at my age, I've lost some of my higher frequncy hearing, I found that even with the excellent CG25 Center, voices could sound a bit thick or "muddy". After watching this video, I set the CG5s at 90 and the CG25 at 100 and, viola, voices were much sharper and detailed. I bumped the CG3s to 110 and the Elevations to 90 and ended up with a much smoother immersive sound. It just goes to show you that you really have to take some of the typical recommendations with a grain of salt and let your own ears tell you what works best for you.

Great channel and you really are doing us a lot of favor with your video. There are hardly any videos that go in-depth like you did. I am new to ht and just got my first set up. I wanted to run it by you to make sure I am doing it right. I have the Sony core bookshelf speakers in the front including the center channel laying it horizontally. Using Polk speakers as surround for now but use them as atmos later. Receiver is denon 3300w. After running the test for crossover it gave me front 120, center 60 and surround as 80. Have the bass as 120 LFE. I have an emotiva sub s8. While listening to a song on KZfaq. These settings sounded fine but the watched a movie on Netflix and the bass was either too boomy or can’t hear it. Also using it with Apple TV connected directly to the avr and showing as sending pcm to the avr. Any help would be appreciated. Would also like to see what eq if any do you use and how do you set up the shortcut buttons in the remote.

I have the Denon 4700 B&W 686-s2 as fronts, B&Whtm62-S2 for the center and B&W M1 as surrounds. This completely made my system sound sooo immersive. I just ordered the SVS ULTRA tower theater package along with 4 prime height speakers to fully get the most out of my Denon and can’t wait to use this configuration. I currently have a B&W Pv1D and Bose accoustimss 15 as my second sub. I’m going to run the SVS PC2000 pro and see what the whole system sounds like. I might trade the PC2000 for a PB2000 pro and get duals.

Right on, you can look at the dialog setting and try adjusting it. Not sure what option the 2300 has, my x2000 was actually more adjustable, allowing you to reduce dialog, but the X6200 only has Dialog Enhancer "low medium and high". Dynamic EQ is "on" and Dynamic Volume is "off"? Dynamic Volume can really alter the sound in a way I'm not fond of.

Hi, still trying to figure out which is the best surround speakers position for my small room and 5.1 setup. I've put Indiana Line NANO 2 as rear surround above ear level around 1.5 feet, not pointed downwards, this because sometimes I stay in the middle and sometimes quite near the back wall, need more versatility. At the moment I've mounted them upside down. What do you think? I'm using also denon x1200w, paid just 200€ new :)

At the moment Audyssey has me using the following setup 80hz for fronts (S10), 40z for center (S30) and rears 100Hz (S10) and I have some Polk VT60 in the ceiling for Dolby Atmos at 120Hz and a SVS PB-1000 at 80Hz

Yes, the only thing that I expect might be different is under the amp assign options since the X7200WA can have each individual amp assigned to power any speakers connected except the centre and surrounds I believe. Useful when comboing power amps and setups in zone 2 /3. It is one heck of a receiver though. Are you starting to adjust to it more? I know you said you preferred the sound of the Marantz out the box. Just wondered if the Denon is starting to / continuing to grow on you? Especially compared to your older X2200W or similar receiver???

@Subwoofer101 7 жыл бұрын

The Marantz was marginally better, it wasn't so dramatic that I think any less of the Denon. I'd still choose the Denon because of the display. I'm satisfied with it, it's a great AVR.

I'm planning to add it to the receiver and make it 7.1 but assigned to front height speakers so that i can play Dolby Pro Logic IIz. Would the mismatched 6 vs 8 ohms speaker create a problem for the denon. Don't want to destroy the receiver if it is the case. I probably just assign the extra speakers to zone 2 listening then.

I know this is an older video, but i am curious if you are still running your crossovers this way. If you are, i was curious if you're losing some of your mids to the subwoofer because you are running them this way. I was thinking about trying out your method, but my surrounds are pretty nice and get down to 39htz, and i don't know if i want to lose some of that bass and mids. This video was very informative, and thanks for sharing.

No important losses that I could tell, just more dynamic bass. 90 hertz for the towers and center, 120 hertz for the surrounds. Love it, and you should try it. Free, and easy enough to change back.

@Subwoofer101 7 жыл бұрын

Thanks! The way I look at the slightly increased distance setting on the subwoofers is slightly shifting the timing to defeat some cancellation between subs and mains. It's something that can be tried and then put back if it's not better than you started. I've seen some positive results on REW graphs, and it seems to sound better to me, but every case is unique.

@luisdaniloancheta2823 7 жыл бұрын

I also noticed that your AVR recognized two subs. Is it because you have two preouts for it? I'm using two subs with one preout so when I do my calibration (ypao) it only recognized one although I have two.

@Subwoofer101 7 жыл бұрын

I'm not super familiar with Yamaha, but I would guess in the speaker setup you might have just one sub selected instead of 2. If that doesn't do the trick, either call Yamaha to get it figured out, or get a simple splitter and run both subs off of the output that works, and run room correction again. Yes, both subs should be active in the calibration. If not, you're not getting a calibration based on 2 subs running, which is quite a bit different compared to a single.

Wireless adds a lot of delay, so I only use wireless when I absolutely MUST. You could try adjusting phase, run room correction, and then go back to 0. Haven't tried this personally, but if you have time to kill it might work.

Hmm. Good thought. I'm also going to try to add an extended RCA cable on to the wireless receiver and move it even further from the current location hopefully increasing the distance that gets measured. Then referencing the initial sub distance measurement I may have a few feet of play for adjustment. We'll see. Thanks.

The 6300 and 6400 are more up to date since they are more recent models. You also get 11 on board channels.

If I add an external amplifier, I could do 7.2.4 but with a 6300 or 6400 I wouldn't need an external amplifier to run that configuration.

For the sub, the slope is 24 db, but for the speakers it's 12 db. I think this explains it pretty well:www.subwoofer101.com/setting-up-your-gear/large-vs-small-lfe-main-double-bass-etc/ Just changed the theme on the site, so it might be a little off.

so i just bought the x6200w for $2000AU. original Australian price $4400. Wasn't going to go this high in the model range but could not resist the price. Still not setup. Deciding on speaker placement.ATMOS vs AURA3d speaker layout. i decided to set up for 5.1 in the interim until i decide. My son says there is very little AURA3d content out there but the manual claims it upscales signals to A3D. I want to do the speaker placement (beyond 5.1) as a once off project. Since i have never experienced ATMOS or A3D i'm not sure which way to go.. any suggestions would be appreciated.

If you set it up for Auro 3D, that should also be an Atmos topology, less the voice of God channel. That's pretty much how I have mine set up, I just haven't paid for the Auro 3D upgrade. No voice of God for me yet. I just put an elevated channel directly above the fronts and directly above the side surrounds, which should be good for all 3 immersive formats. Auro 3D should upscale any format, but Atmos is trying to stop that on newer AVR's. Not sure about the older ones. Set up as I described, it shouldn't be an issue either way. If you have the voice of God speaker, it would probably be silent in Atmos mode.

Subwoofer 101 Thank you so much.. That's the way I'll go.. Now for some overtime to buy great speakers to match the x6200. My jamo speakers may not be enough. Though the 2 jamo subwoofers are superb I would have to give up one for the voice of good channel..later

I know SVS products are spendy in Australia, but if you could find a place that would let you try it with return policy, it would be worth checking out. Dual PB-1000's or PB-2000's would be game changers. Fortunately, just using a simple splitter is all you need to run duals, so no need to put away the second subwoofer!

You should check out my Bass Hack Video Series, especially the Gain Hack. I would say forget 75, I aim for 83-84. You'll see why in the video, and it will wake up your subs.

@Subwoofer101 6 жыл бұрын

I use Small myself. Large with LFE+Main would be the next choice, but it taxes your AVR, usually making it run hotter. If you have external amplification, this is less of a problem. I you have books for fronts, you should run small regardless.

How do you get it to display on your tv?

@Subwoofer101 Жыл бұрын

Everything needs to go through your AVR, before it goes to your TV. So if you have a Fire TV stick, Blu-ray player, cable box, whatever, it needs to go through the AVR first. Then select "on screen display" in your AVR. If you try to use the apps on your TV, or have anything connected to your TV first instead of going through the AVR, you won't be able to get the on-screen display.

Finally bought a new sub thanks for the videos your review of the svs subs and Z-Reviews (zeos pantera) if you know him got my to get a svs sub. I bought the nsd-12 sb because my room is not that big and i wanted a 12" driver with some power behind it and wanted to try a sealed sub, for it's size this sub is a real monster and i got it " cheap" at the svs store where i live because it's a limited edition or a refreshed version of tge nsd 12sb of it. Keep the videos coming like this one today good work the other videos helped me a lot for what sub i should buy.

What did you pay for it? Amazon has them for $399 amzn.to/2gmwF3P (affiliate link) which is what I imagine is close to what you paid. You may want to get another before they are gone, it's a limited run as I understand it. Duals will be even better if you can believe it. I won't run a single unless I have no other choice, you end up missing bass. The reason I say to grab another is because you want your subs as matched as possible. An SB-2000 would probably do just fine with an SB12-NSD, but for an extra $300. The SB12-NSD is a screaming deal right now. Z-Reviews is a great channel, we've never spoken, but I dig his style. Cool cat too!

@Subwoofer101 6 жыл бұрын

It's tough because the subwoofers I recommend react a little differently to a higher crossover. My recommendations might cause a boomy sound, since most subs get quieter as they go deeper. In contrast, the subs I recommend tend to get a little louder as you go deeper, until you reach the limits of your hearing. www.subwoofer101.com/best-subwoofers/ A pair of PB-1000's would give you a more impressive presentation. Duals are super important, and the difference in depth would be undeniable. At that point I would comfortably recommend a crossover of 80-90 hertz. That may work with the sub you are getting, but you may have to adjust the gain. This can help you understand the crossover settings: www.subwoofer101.com/setting-up-your-gear/large-vs-small-lfe-main-double-bass-etc/ I can be slow responding to comments, I have Fibromyalgia and it limits me. Sorry about that, it's nothing personal. I'm the worlds first SVS affiliate, so if you follow my links it can support this channel. They have a much quicker response and they do free tech support for my viewers, even if they aren't customers. On their webpage, the chat window is on the right. sub101.link/SVS

Common assumption, but my dogs and I have similar thresholds of noise tolerance. Angel (the white Tibetan Mastiff) doesn't like saxophone ("I'm Gonna Move to the Outskirts of Town" by Eric Clapton in particular), but otherwise if it's too loud for her, it's too loud for me as well. I rarely "blast" it. The potential is certainly there, but I listen at very comfortable levels.
