Congratulations! One thing I would recommend moving forward is to read
and participate in this forum, and play around in the pCP, LMS UI and
Settings, to not only learn what is going on "under the hood" but to
learn what alot of cool things others are doing

Sorry to hear about your audio woes. I just solved a "subwoofer problem"
that I am embarrassed to admit I sort of lived with for a year. I have a
small system - touch, arcam amp, Klipsch bookshelf speakers in our cabin
that I decided to add a tiny sub to. I had to hook it up via speaker
wires. It just didn't sound right. I had to turn it's gain up quite
high, then occasionally a bass note or two would boom. I thought
placement, but I really wanted to keep it in a spot that I figured was
less ideal, as it's really just background listening here. I also have
alot of reno going on here, so moved on.

Then, this year, I was messing around with the wiring (added a dac, the
ever growing "small system"), I unplugged one of the two speaker leads
from the amp to the sub and the sub came alive! I knew immediately what
I had done. One of the channels was hooked up out of phase. So, when the
base notes were present on both channels, the sub amp through
integrating them, essentially was cancelling them. The occasional notes
that would "boom" had to be present only on one channel.

I felt both ecstatic and sick at the same time. The system now sounds
wonderful, better than I had hoped when I bought the sub, and added the
dac. I am super pleased, but still think about the lost year
(essentially last spring, summer fall :o :mad:).

so, check your hookup :) and the setting in your receiver.

Jim
