Hi-

I have been trying to set up my surround system per the instructions and am struggling, kind of. Here is what is happening.

I have run the Audyssy setup per the instructions to a tee. However, when playing music from various sources, I do not get any subwoofer sound.

The Marantz recognizes the BIC and you can here low frequencies during the setup process. But then, no bass during playback!

I am hoping I am setting the BIC up properly to begin with (the instructions are pretty uninformative):

ON (not standby)
Zero (not 180 degrees)
twelve o'clock for volume
crossover at 80
and crossover OUT (not in)

is that correct?

the Audyssy sets the volume at -12 db. all the distances seem correct. the mic is on a tripod. there is no background noise.

i am so bummed. i really want to hear and feel my low end! i have a great set of front speakers, they are Norman Lab 432s. and a pair of NHT superzero 2.0s in the back.

Can anybody please help me? i am stuck!

thank you so much,

jeffrey
