    1068 Sub Set Up

    hello all

    I have a 1968 and Big klipsch speakers all around. (chorus IIs, heresy's, quartets, academy) as well as an older sw-15. (one fo klipsch's first subs)

    I am trying to figure out the difference between subwoofer "yes" and subwoofer "max"

    I know what the book says, im trying to see the real world difference.

    It seems to me that you get a much fuller sound on MAX than on YES. Is this just because the signal that is supposed to go to the sub is going to all large speakers? or is there something else here?

    I have been doing alot of experimenting with Harry Potter II, which probably has too much Bass. the scene where the phony teacher tries to zap harry's brain and it backfires on him is just plain SICK with bass. The scene is much more crazy in MAX than in YES>

    maybe i just have a sh!tty sub woffer?

    penny for your thoughts

      MAX means both the .1 channel and the bass from the main channels go to the sub
      YES means the sub is only feeded with the .1 channel.

      This explains why MAX has louder bass, since it gets twice the information.

          I've found that setting to MAX is the only way to have the subwoofer play when in STEREO mode with an analog source. Is this accurate, or is there another way?

          I couldn't find a reference in the the manual, and the dealer didn't have an answer either (but then, they didn't even know that BYPASS mode existed...).

              This is accurate when you have set your frontspeakers to LARGE, as this means you believe your frontspeakers are capable of producing the bass / lower frequencies, meaning no signal is being send to the sub when you use the YES setting. (btw this should be valuable for both analog and digital - PCM stereo - sources...). However, when you've set your frontspeakers to SMALL, the setting YES should be 'enough' to send bass to the sub.

                  Yes, that is one of the things I really would like Rotel to fix, if possible.

                  I'd rather have the possibility to redirect the sub for some analogue sources
                  And no redirection for digital sources. This is with the current software not possible.

                  It would be a nice feauture to at least set redirection for analogue, digital and 5.1 seperately. Or even better have a menu option on every source.

                      rsp-1068 bass management
                      by eelco74
                      I have a question, that I cannot find in the manual.

                      I have all large speakers and a subwoofer, so sub is set to YES, speakers all large.

                      What I would like to do is this :

                      Have no bass redirect on 5.1 input
                      Have no bass redirect on DD/DTS discs...

                      1066 bass mgmt - something's not right here
                      by JKohn
                      I'm beginning to wonder if the firmware in my 1066 has some bugs with regard to bass management. I was one of the people who verified that the 6.1 inputs had the “bass-doubling” issue. Now, I've noticed that the 1066 seems to have bass management issues in regular 2-channel as well.

                      I just received my 1068 today and have been toying with it all night long. I'm having trouble setting the sub to "yes". Let me try to clarify my question. If I set my fronts to Large and sub to "yes", the sub does not produce any sound, but when set to "max" the sub...

                      Why is sub not working with RSP-1068 ?
                      by 94Cobra
                      Hello - new member here. I just plugged in my new SVS PB12 NSD/2 sub using the low level input from my RSP-1068 and the sub will not play. The only way it will play is if I turn the gain knob on the sub to full max, and add +10db to the sub on the test tone menu, and add another +10db in the seperate...
