Re: PB13 delivered today - but not getting the results...


The first time I ran the Audyssey on my Onkyo, it didn't do a good job with the bass, the bass was very weak, but I ran it a second type (making sure the nearby fridge was off, central heating was off, silenced the nearby clock, disabled the cooling fan in my AV cabinet)....I ensured everything was a quiet as can be and it did a better job.

For all other people, try turning off the Audyssey because I have a feeling sometimes it somehow messes up the bass. Using my SPL meter, I ran the manual test tones on the same receiver receiver and it looked like the bass was about 1 dB too low, so I added 3dB more (a little bit more is nice) and the bass is now very very nice.
