I guess this cover all levels of AV Receiver and 5.1/stereo speaker usage.
Since finally setting up my home AV system (specs below), speakers, AV receiver, AirTunes Music and new TV/BluRay player, using Inakustik Premium HDMI and Inakustik Subwoofer Y cables (http://www.in-akustik.com/en/KuZ/produkte/default.asp) from the receievers Subwoofer output I have tried many things but still get the feeling that there is not ample bass. Also with stero music playback I had hoped to put the Subwoofer to use in providing more bass to dance music or provide a deeper sounf to classic.
Am I expecting too much or something that is not there?
I know that the bass as it is is pretty good, but when ever a bassy section of a movie soundtrack (Inception) comes on I rush over to see if the bass is active and don't get the feeling it is doing too much. A low rumble here and there perhaps. The floorstanders seem to be doing more work. I did use Audessey to calibrate the room/speaker settings and the sound seems acceptabley 5.1.
I know there are a few other Onkyo 875 owners on this forum, perhaps they can weigh in with their settings and receiver setups to get the best from it and the attached speakers.
Appreciate any and all help.
