RX-V2600 & Boston Acoustics VRC Hookup?

[slicker84]

I have a yamaha rx-v2600 with a boston acoustics vrc hooked up to the center channel the wires are definitely hooked up correct but when i run auto setup i get a error saying the center channel is hooked up wrong and if i hook the speaker up wrong then it passes so do i leave it hooked up right and just forget about the error or hook it up wrong and have no error i don't want to damage my receiver.

TIA

i own the boston VR3 towers. and i have the predecessor to your receiver (mine is the yamaha 2500). i had the same issue when i ran autosetup; it told me the speakers were wired out of phase. i called yamaha about this and they said that with certain speakers, the autosetup might give an erroneous reading. as long as you are certain that you speakers are properly connected (plus to plus and minus to minus), then i would choose to ignore the error from your yamaha's autosetup.

Some of the test DVDs have phase check on them. You may want to try that too.

...just ignore as suggested if you know for sure you have pos to pos and neg to neg.

I also had the problem with my 2500 almost a year ago. Today, I unpacked an RX-V757 for the bedroom and it did exactly the same thing with an entirely different set of speakers. It also set the sub crossover at 160.

It's not Y-PAO... it's more like, Why-PAO ???
