Hi All

I have a yamaha rx a3030 and with polk audio RTi A9's. All my speakers have sound but my subwoofer does not have any sounds. I have tried to set my configuration on the Yamaha control panel but still have the same problem.

I am very new in this, so your kind assistance would great be appreciated.

Regards

    Hello Levi,
    Welcome to Polk's forum. Are you using a subwoofer connecting cable or the wireless method of connecting the subwoofer?
    Regards, Ken

    Hi Ken, Thanks for the prompt response. I am using a cable.

    The first step is to determine if the subwoofer is working correctly or not. To do this you would turn the volume of the sub all the way off. Then remove the sub-cable from the rear of your receiver and connect it to either the right or left output of a DVD player or CD player and begin playing a CD. Then slowly turn the volume up on the sub. There should be plenty of bass at a low setting on the sub.

    change your front speaker configuration from large to small / set crossover to front mains to 40hz or above.

    Seconded. Set all your speakers to small.

    If you used the YPAO (I am assuming you did) with those speakers it will set it to large. It did that with my set up. Tonight I'll change it to small as well. It plays sub when Dolby Digital is up, but change to stereo output sub is gone. I think this is what happened to you.
