wahtz up everybody

I currently have a yamaha htr-5760 av receiver
also just bought
yamaha ns-125f tower speakers (look it up at yamaha site)
yamaha ns-c125 center speaker (look it up at yamaha site)
yamaha yst-sw315 subwoofer (look it up at yamaha site)
i dont have the surrounds from the yamaha ns-m125 yet but i will get dem soon
im currently using small satellite speakers from the SA-VE367T speaker package (that i been had)
i used da ypao to set everythin up but it set my
front speakers to large
my center to small
and da surrounds to small
then it put my crossover on my sub at 160hz then after that it put my sub volume to -9.5
then my LFE/BASS OUT to SWFR

To me the sound isn't good quality it dosent seem like itz using the sub at a cool level, but the sub is hearable but they made the volume too low i guess

My front tower speakers frequency response is 60hz-35khz
and my center frequency response is 70hz-35khz
and my surrounds frequency response is 100hz-27,000hz

i know this alot to answer but can somebody plz help me wit thiz whole thing, to make it sound better way better
also i dont have a SPL METER or a test disc (probably the thx optimizer from the star wars movie) i've spend so much money as it is, so it seem ima hav to do it by ear ya know.

Your crossover is too high. I would try doing this:

Turn off the crossover on your sub (there should be a switch to disable it). Then set all your speakers to "small" (I know, you fronts' are big, but stay with me), and set the receiver's crossover at 80Hz. See how the sound is, and start adjusting the crossover up and down from there.

leave the volume of the sub on the receiver to 0.0 and adjust from the sub itself, see how you go
