Howdy. I've pieced together a budget home theater system after Black Friday. I picked up a Samsung 60" 1080p tv, a Denon AVR-S510BT receiver and a Polk Audio PSW108 powered sub. I've got everything running fluidly without a hitch. Bluray, DVD, older game consoles and the TV audio all play thru the receiver/speakers. I currently just have 2 front and a center speaker, no rears. But I cannot get the subwoofer to produce any sound.
I've got the sub turned on, low pass is set fully clockwise, volume at 50%. I've got an RCA cable (digital audio coaxial cable that I had laying around) running from the receiver (sub pre-out #1) to the L/white input on the sub. Receiver speaker settings are set to small, sub to yes. Sub frequency to 120Hz per Polk's instruction manual.
I unplugged the RCA from the receiver and can hear the thumping when I tap it, so it's got continuity and the sub works. Is there a setting or something I'm missing on the receiver? When I run the auto setup it detects all speakers but nothing from the sub. The receiver is brand new and working seamlessly for all other functions. I'm at a loss.
Pics of the factory panels for reference. I can attach pics of my connections if it'll help.
I'm relatively new to actual home theater systems, my previous was an "in the box" package. But I'm not completely inept when it comes to tech and inputs/outputs. Any help/advice is appreciated.
