Re: Subwoofer LFE adjustment questions...


With pro amps IME you want to have their input gain levels cranked all the way clockwise. Big problems otherwise happen with the AVR clipping its LFE output. Unless you are trying to compensate for a SACD/DVD-A players' analog sub output level, I would set the AVR's LFE at 0 not -10.

I don't have a Behringer, but rather a Mackie M1400 and to get the input drive right I had to get an ART Cleanbox to get nominal +4 dBu pro level adequate drive. Home audio uses -10 dBV for nominal line levels.
