I am using a Yamaha RX-V659 and the BFD. I have my sub level adjusted to -10db(Max cut) on the Yamaha and when I turn the volume output to -5db from reference the red clip lights are going crazy on the BFD. How can I further reduce the signal to the BFD to allow me to turn up the volume higher?

Yes I did, I will be sure to double check that though.
Ok, double checked my BFD. Both of the input level buttons are pushed in for the -10dbv as stated in the BFD guide. According to the manual my receiver puts out 4V at 1.7K ohm. I have the signal going to a RCA Y cable into the BFD if that would make any difference?
Guys, thanks for your help. I will be sure to give the +4 a shot when I get home. I'm wondering how many others are in the same boat and have kept the BFD at -10 and clipping. I'm not using anything fancy for a receiver, there's got to be millions of Yamaha's in use. Once I get this dialed in I will post some of my results. Thanks again.
The problem is indeed solved with the +4 switch. Thank you again for the help. Now Im on to spend many hours learning and tweaking away.
