Hi everyone. I'm having issues with my modest setup and its driving me crazy trying to get to the bottom of it.
I'll try and make this as short as possible.
My set up is currently a Pioneer VSX 329 receiver and a Tannoy SFX 5.1 speaker setup.
Everything was running great for years then recently I noticed my subwoofer was very quiet even when turned up full. I tried messing with the settings on the receiver but with no luck. I then figured that my sub must be dead, so I dug out my old spare from the attic and plugged it in and it was exactly the same still extremely quiet.
At this point I figured that maybe my receivers sub pre out was faulty so this was a great excuse for an upgrade. So today I went and bought a new Denon AVR-X550BT got home set it all up and tested it out and its still the same!!
Now I thought ill plug my sub into my phone with a 3.5mm to RCA cable and try that. Both subwoofers are working fine from my phone but not on either my Pioneer or brand new Denon receivers.
I really don't understand what i'm doing wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
