No the old manual use to give a “clock” position which I read incorrectly and set way to high. Scared the hell out of me. I think when I finally set it lower and ran the auto setup and it ended up setting the LFE channel to -10dB (the range was +-12db). So I turned it down lower and ran auto setup again to get a level setting closer to 0 so I had some room to play with adjusting the sub up and down from the receiver. I would go with Axiom’s recommended settings and then check the levels that auto-setup set your subwoofer to and if it’s up around +-10 I would adjust it accordingly at the sub and re-run auto-setup.

If you’re using your receiver’s bass management like most people then I would set the subwoofer’s crossover to the highest setting or bipass if it has one.
