As far as setting up home theaters, I am pretty good, until it comes to my own! I'm not sure what the problem is, but I just can't seem to get it right. The Denon's built in Audyssey MultiEQ does a fantastic job of cleaning up the sound and providing for a perfectly clear, crisp sound. My problem seems to be power. Every time I run the Audyssey setup, I loose almost all bass. I am one of those guys that loves to rattle pictures off the walls. When something blows up, I want to feel like my house is going to fall down. With my old, and I mean old, Yamaha PLII receiver, I had this earth shattering sound with an old pair of Acoustic Research 8" Bookshelve 2-ways. They sounded great. Then I upgrade to the Denon, which I love for the clarity. Then I got my F-2's. Then I got my C-2 and am very happy, but I just can't seem to get that explosiveness back. After playing with crossover levels, making sure that the center is set to small, fronts set to large, I get a lot of my bass back. But I'm not really sure that it sounds as powerful as I think it should. Any tips?? I'd sure love to hear any ideas.
Thanks in advance.
