New to the site. Not entirely familiar with terms and best practices. Forgive me.
I recently received a Yamaha RX-V683 receiver as a gift, and I found a pretty decent deal on a set of Definitive Technology ProCinema 600 speakers. Both are new, both appear to be undamaged.
I bought high quality speaker wire, and carefully (and with slight OCD) prepared and wired in the speakers. I am running the front L, R, and center speakers through the receiver, not the sub. The subs crossover is set to max as per instructions when being run from the receiver via a pre-made sub cable. At high volume, everything sounds pretty darn amazing. At low volume, the center (and possibly the right and left fronts) seem to distort vocals a significant amount. I have noticed a crackling at low volumes in the surround L and R too.
Any suggestions? I really would love to be able to listen to things at levels lower, more comfortable levels sometimes.
Thanks!
