FIXED! I AM DUMB. SEE MY REPLY, TWO DOWN. __________________________________________________ ___ I finally got everything hooked up. Spent ALL DAY today hooking stuff up, wiring correctly etc. Here's the setup: Denon 3803 Axiom M22ti (front) VP150 (center) QS8 surrounds The problem is that I can't get any volume out of the thing, with any source. The sound I get is crystal clear, but it's so soft. The mute is not on. Put it this way at volume level -20 it's only at "talking volume"; we'd be able to carry on a conversation, right in front of the speakers. It should be ear-shattering at -20! Fronts/Center/Surrounds are set to "small." Sub is on. Crossover is 80Hz. With the test tones, I can crank it to ear splitting levels, so I know things are hooked up right, but not with CD (Optical 1) or the Tuner. Help please!
I feel like such a damn IDIOT. The Denon 3803 goes ABOVE "00" db level. Every receiver I've had in the past tops out at "00". Being that I was at -20 I said "why go any higher when "00" is it? Something is wrong." Yeah, I'm stupid. That's what is wrong. Once I get to about -15 it gets some volume. "00" is ear shattering. :b I did go up to +4db...I knocked it off there as the SVS was rattling the windows. I have not calibrated anything yet...Just got it hooked up. NEVER MIND GUYS. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As a testimony to my sheer stupidity, I won't edit the original post.....except to say "fixed."
