I went in to the Yamaha menu and set the sub to +3. I then set all other speakers at 0 and re-calibrated the entire set. The sub is the last speaker in the menu and when I got to it, it did not put out any sound at all. SO....I went and turned it off and back on and then it output. It was way over 80db so I dialed it back using the knob on back of the sub. I left it at 78db. Then I turned the whole set up off and then back on to listen to a cd. Plenty of bass. I turned it back off and back on and put in BOB - the Jump scene. Plenty of bass. We will see how long it lasts. Thanks for all the suggestions and welcome any others from the West Coast/Night Owl crowd..........Rob
