    Need help on HK AVR630 tuning

    I have just bought a HK AVR630 and am slightly confused while trying to tune the bass management.

    To start with my current set up with Harman Kardon AVR630 is 5.1 as follows - Speaker set - tannoy sensys dc2 for main speakers (tower, ground standing), center speaker - tannoy sensys dcc, surround speakers - tannoy sensys r, sub - velodyne cht-10r.

    When I go for speaker set up and do set sub on and proceed to my cross-over frequency setting, I have an entry for LFE which accepts L&R, Center, Surround Back, Surround as options. Ideally if my sub is on, this is a redundant and confusing entry. Is it that this entry is ignored by AVR630?

    If I increase the bass and treble under Tone IN to higher values, would it have a detrimental effect?

    Under channel adjustment if any channel is made +10db would that have any detrimental effect? In case I want to set up manually is there any ball-park setting I cud start with?

    Audio is very low when DVD is played - what type of tuning is recommended?

    When I run DVD with DTS 5.1, monitor displays 3/2.1 - is this OK? And I do get a message saying ES off - what does it imply?

    Other than the manual is there any link which gives details on how to tune 630?

    by maseline_98
    I've been using my Marantz SR8400 for about an year now and absolutely love it, but I have a HK AVR630 laying around(never even hooked it up b4), which I was going to use for my ping pong room.

    I hooked up the HK and immediately noticed a better bass management system compared to my...

    Entry level tube/valve amp advice
    by pedro77
    Hi

    I'm interested in getting a tube amp and was hoping someone here may have listened to a couple of the amps I'm considering. I basically got interested when I read some rave reviews about the great value of the Miniwatt S1, which has since been superseded by the N3.

    As...
