Subwoofer w/ 5.1

 

Anonymous
 
I recently got a receiver w/ 5.1 capabilities and hooked it up to my dvd player. Is it normal for the sub to hardly get any sound pushed to it all in 5.1 mode. The reason I ask is, in normal stereo sound, the sub is loud as it can be, almost too much. But, in 5.1 surround sound I have the gain knob of my sub turned all the way up and it just doesn't make much of a punch. Suggestions?

try adjusting the crossover on your reciever nad what type of reciever do u have, cuz some allow u to set the level of the sub.

I was having the same problem, and I chose to run my sun through the hi-level (speaker terminals). It sounds great this way, although some may argue that it isn't real 5.1. Good Luck.
