Yeah, I think so. Left front is 0db. Center, depending on the movie is -2 to +4/+6db. Right front is -10db (-8db if I have a fan on.) Surround right is -8 (-6 if I have a fan on.) Surround left is +2db. And subwoofer is usually +6db. It seems to be pretty good for me. It sure took a long time to...

I've noticed Neo:6 and something called PII (I think) on the selections. Does Center Width let you decide how much of the center channel goes to the two front speakers ? Sorry if I'm asking a lot of questions. This is my first surround system and I'm trying to get it set up properly. I do have...

I'm guessing the higher the number, the more bass is sent to the speakers ? Or do I have that wrong ? Does the dialogue stay in the center speaker or does it go through any of the other speakers ?

The manual says that you have to use the display on the receiver to change settings. Oh, well. Why would the converters not work with blu-ray ?

I'm new to HDMI, so if you have HDMI in, can you only get HDMI out ? I ask because my tv only has component input and I know the ONKYO has on screen display. How can I use the HDMI for the sound but still make use of the on screen display ?

I'm sure I'll read more about it in the manual, but what are crossovers ?

I would have bought the next one up, but it's a lot more money and it's 7.1. I don't own any movies that have 7.1. I've never seen a movie that was 7.1

I'm just getting into surround sound and was wondering about the setup I just got. It's the Onkyo HT-S3500. From what I've read, this is one of the best of these "home theater in a box" type of setups. Is this true ? I won't be using it until next week, so I was wondering if anyone here knows...
