I just bought a Velodyne MiniVee for an amazing (I think) $300 brand new. Seemed like a good deal at the local Good Guys, who are going out of business and selling everything at 40-60% off.
Anyway, I replaced a 6 year old Energy 8" powered unit with this Velodyne unit, based solely on the fact that I have heard people raving about the Velodyne brand, and with the retail price of $799, I figured this thing had to be good. It was the last one in the store, so I grabbed it.
Got it home, and plugged it into my Denon 2805, and I just wanted to make sure that I have this all setup correctly, as I am a complete noob when it comes to this.
I plugged the cable into the LFE on the sub, and the subwoofer out on the receiver. On the sub, I used the following settings:
Volume - 50%
Power - Auto
Low Pass Crossover - 80
Subwoofer Direct
Phase - 0

The bass for this thing is great during movies, but for music, it seems nonexistent. Did I do something wrong?
