congrats on new purchase
have u run the YPAO calibration?

make sure crossover is enabled by setting all speaker size = small.
and dont use direct mode

crossover function is to filter out bass from full range sound and feed into subwoofer.

if use front speaker large, means the crossover is disabled.
well, depends on the content you play. stereo movie or songs your subwoofer will not be activated, becos no signal feed in.
but 5.1 surround movie will work, see the extra signal of .1 channel? (5 channel full range to each speaker + 0.1 partial channel just for the bass a.k.a. sub-woofer)

your subwoofer has left and right RCA separated input. meaning got built in crossover too?
set to maximum Hz in order to bypass it, as u can remote control it from AVR too

usually our connection to AVR will combine bass from left and right channel become mono (1 RCA only), due to the characteristic of deep bass is not directional.
so, no difference to connect right RCA only without the left side

direct mode (or pure direct) means no digital processing. from your player straight decode & amplify the signal to speaker.
the digital processor control ur listening distance, volume & crossover. direct mode = semua tutup.
some ppl say it is good for serious listening, but i feel very plain unless u sit very close to speaker

can try connect the cone shape mic into AVR and run YPAO calibration. it will do all setting automatically about 10 minutes.
i find it is good for starter, then slowly change the calibration settings.

all correct as a starter. crossover setting is abit rely on the speaker set u use. may i know what speaker or the inch size (diammeter) u have?

use AVR to control crossover is easier got remote maa...

for crossover point i use the lowest frequency point following front speaker specs.

last time 4" front i put 100hz just nice.
now have upgraded 5" front, it run 80hz no problem.

press DISPLAY, then press down a few times on remote to confirm the stream type is dolby /dts not LPCM
are u using computer hdmi port or hdd media player ?
if pc need to tick the support of dolby & dts in sound setting of hdmi audio

yup YST205 is 8" or 200mm
aiya, im asking the front speaker diammeter

wdtv set hdmi passthrough is correct. can you double check the video files really 5.1 ar?

test tone got sound one, including subwoofer that make low rumble note
if u hear nothing, maybe need to move sub closer to wall or adjust louder from AVR and the volume behind sub

This is my problem when first try to setup my HT. Try to (Back of SWR):
1- set auto-stdby to HIGH Mode.
2- set all speaker to large

Then try to play any file.

6inch can handle 80hz if your listening room is medium size. but if u prefer to let subwoofer work, give 120hz crossover a try
press DISPLAY and press down a few times will show the total channel signal from wdtv, eg. "3/2/1" means "front /rear /subwoofer"

if prologic mode the signal is not correct. make sure hdmi audio is set to bit stream or passthrough

auto standby can be wake by increase subwoofer volume in AVR

lets say ur amp is rated 80w. zero db means full power
i usually use -30db until -20db inside room. maximum can go +16db

So, hows the sound now? better?

NeoX7 powerful enough for BD m2ts? Can bitstream Dolby TrueHD and DTSHDMA flawlessly?

Thanks. definitely will try it out. I probably miss this out in the manual. My BD player, media player, TV is connected with 673 through hdmi. For picture quality, BD player have better quality than the media player. Even the source of the media player is BD.

1. tik tik is relay sound, normal to yamaha AVR

relay sound, it is part of safety design for high wattage equipments. other brands AVR also tik tik.

heck even my tv also got tik tik sound

Bro, you forgot to take "inflation" into consideration , last time 1.8k not equivalent to 1.8k nowadays

1913 is 7 channels right? how do you find Denon's performance? aesthetically it looks better than Yamaha but like you said some reviews said that Yamaha v475 has got the best sounding quality in that range albeit other features might be lacking. decision decision decision...
