@LFC-Star
4 жыл бұрын
either works fine as a sub only carries a mono signal.. You can connect another sub into the L one if you want.. With another phono cable.. or a Y SPLITTER into each if you intend to run 4 subwoofers? Running 4 subs is a good idea.. 2 in the front sound stage (forward facing). Then 2 smaller downfiring subs in each corner behing the listening position. To connect those up you use shorter subwoofer phono cables between the subwoofers on the rear. In short one of the front subs has a phono sub cable connected to the receiver then a longer sub cable from the front R sub to the sub R side in the rear. Then do the same with the L side. Then run a sub cable between the 2 rear subwoofers to complete the curcuit.

On my 4 subs 2 of them have L and R inputs and I have tested with single and dual connections and when both are hooked up it gains decibels. Common sense.?

Assuming a person is using identical subs, the settings for multiple subs should be the same. The one exception is possibly volume but otherwise there the same. The purpose of multiple subs is to get even bass response throughout the room regardless of seating position. With a single sub there can be dips in the response due room geometry, furniture placement, etc. So properly placing multiple subs can even out the room modes and allow multiple seating positions to have the same level of enjoyment. Hopefully this answers the question.

Thanks for the informative video. My Onkyo TX-NR686 does not have a large or small speaker option, just says "full band, or set crossover depending on speaker size". All my low signals go to the mains and center, and almost none to my sub. My Fluance DB 12's do not have an lfe, just line in. Have the crossover on sub all the way up, phase on "regular" and even with volume 3/4 up, almost no bass. The cable is plugged into subwoofer pre out on AVR, and into line in on sub with a Monoprice sub cable. Any ideas what the problem could be? Thanks.
@HomeTheaterHobbyist

When you run the Onkyo speaker calibration do you hear audio from the sub when it sends a test sound to th sub? If not you may not be getting audio to the sub, first I’d switch cables then maybe inputs on the sub if you have multiple inputs, then try the same on the Onkyo if you have multiple sub outputs. If you are getting sound during auto calibration you could also try setting your speakers crossover setting to 80Hz instead of “Full band”. That will send more bass signal to the sub.
@MichaelGreco

Thanks so much for the great video! One thing I'm a bit confused on is if you set your crossover in your receiver to 80, what do you actually physically set the knob to on the subwoofer itself to ensure it doesn't interfere with what you said in the receiver settings? Thanks in advance!

Set it above what ever setting you choose. For example if your receiver is set at 80Hz then set the subwoofer at 100hz that way you know the subwoofer is playing everything the receiver is sending.
