No, you're right, I didn't connect the MP3 player directly to the Kenwood sub. I only tried it via the home theater receiver. There was definitely more output via the direct connection of the MP3 player, but at max EP350 volume it was barely putting out anything. I tried to explain to my wife that our ears should be bleeding at that level.
Believe me, I am as surprised as anyone else here that I am having this much of an issue. It's also crossed my mind that I am the unluckiest man alive. Haha.
Hopefully I will hear back from Axiom soon. If not, I will call at lunch.
