All Yamaha receivers LFE and SW levels are set at maximum (0db) from the factory, so dropping it down 4-5 db will help. Your best bet is to get a set-up disc like Sound & Vision Home Theater Tune-Up, Video Essentials, or Avia, and also a SLP meter from Radio Shack to properly calibrate your system.
