Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater AXIOMS arrived today!!!!!!! Need help...

Hi cocheex

That's a very nice system you have there, I think you're going to love it. First, you have to go to the advanced set up menu and make your selections.

I'd set all the speakers to SMALL, and cross over at 80 Hz. Make sure you enable your subwoofer "SUB YES/NO."

Onkyo has various surround/DSP options accessible from the remote. I think the default is 2 channel stereo, so go through the other choices while standing next to one of the surround speakers and you should find a number of options which enable your center, surround and sub.

Good luck and report back!

ive tried pro logic 2 music, neo music and theatre modes in the two and still cant get sound from surrounds. just fronts and center...

Go the set up menu again and make sure you have enabled your surround speakers.

i have them enabled 2X6, i can get surround on dvd's, but thats it. is there somewhere in setup that im not seeing??? the on screen setup seems pretty straight forward, but i could be missing something...

that is an odd problem.. i didnt experience that, so i dont really have a ready explanation for you. if you have done all the things listed from me and 2x6, then you should be wkng..?? if i had my manual here at work, i would flip thru it and maybe be able to give some more advice. you might want to check the back of the manual for trouble shooting advice.. they might have something there to help you figure it out.

i am sure you just have some sort of setting wrong, and its just a matter of finding it.

Wouldn't it be millihertz?

Oops, yes... nothing like being wrong when correcting someone else.

Do you hear sound if you use the pink noise generator from the receiver itself? Are they wired correctly? Does setup (the on screen from the receiver) show that you have surrounds?

second James' comments, you should double check wiring to make sure everything is hooked up properly.

Great setup, you'll be very happy with it I'm sure.

yes, it gets pink noise to all speakers fine so i know the speakers are fine. im thinking its has to do with the receiver, some setting i dont have right or something...
