Hey guys I just got my PC's 5.1 system calibrated a few days ago and followed Marantz's recommendation of setting the subwoofer volume at half (on this SVS SB 3000 that was -30dB)
I believe that the AVR set the sub level at -1.5dB. While in general everything 'sounds' clear and tight, I prefer a little more bass for music listening than what this resulted in.
Am I correct in understanding that the ideal way to increase output here is to increase the AVR's sub level output, not increase the sub's internal volume? IE, increase the sub level on the Marantz up to say 0dB or even a few +dB, not increase the SVS sub's volume above half?
