I think the new EP500 amps need to be at about halfway (could be wrong, be careful). If you never hear anything or if it's very, very soft, double check the RCA->1/4" adapter plug. At this point, there could be a problem with the sub amp.

If it works fine with the MP3 player, try setting things up in the receiver manually, without Audyssey.


Thanks, I'm getting something out of the sub. I went up and listened & heard the sub, it's outputting, I could hear bass during the movie from my seat.... but and the LFE's, tiny body tingle. but I would think the 2012 earthquake scenes, just might make you know something was going on. I'll try some music or a movie with my droid

Thanks Again
