    On a related topic, but having to do probably with home theater setup in general as well as specifcially the Yamaha RX-V4600 is the following question: If your receiver has setup for speaker installation, should you set everything in the DVD player to large speakers and let the receiver sort...

    Subwoofer issue with Pioneer DV-563A player

    Oh great, now I have another issue. In the part of the setup for speaker installation in the pio, it's got it where you can choose each speaker's size, small, large, or none. Anyone have any problem with this? For some reason, now, when I change the size of one speaker, it's changing the size...

    Yamaha RX-V4600

    I have had a problem not really with this receiver, but with my Pioneer DV-563A DVD player which also does SACD and DVD-A. The problem has been that I'm not getting much output from the sub output of this when using the built in multi channel decoder, which of course you have to do for the high...

    Subwoofer issue with Pioneer DV-563A player

    Well -- now the DVD/ video/audio switching is back up again... go figure. It occurred to me, that maybe the best thing to do is to go into the setup menu and just switch off the sub output altogether, assuming then that the bass and LFE would be rerouted to the main L/R front outputs and that...

    Subwoofer issue with Pioneer DV-563A player

    Thanks for the replies. I haven't done any firmware updates and I guess I'll have to look into it. This whole thing has been so disappointing that I'm about ready to try* the Pioneer Elite DV-79AVi and see if that doesn't fair better. With the Yamaha receiver I have, it will take the iLink...

    Subwoofer issue with Pioneer DV-563A player

    Ed, thanks for your reply. The test tones are available when you change the speaker levels from fixed to variable, then you highlight which speaker you want the tone out of and then right click to light up the little speaker icon on the right. After doing more troubleshooting, I discovered...

    Subwoofer issue with Pioneer DV-563A player

    Just looking for suggestions from anyone else who owns this unit, or has any ideas. I've got a Pioneer DV-563A player which has CD, SACD, and DVD-A as well as DVD. I am having trouble getting a subwoofer or "point one" signal. Using the unit's built-in test tones, almost nothing comes through...
