Philips 3571 HTIB Vs Onkyo HTIB

[sonosphere]

Finally got myself a philips 3571 ...

2. The bass was a little overpowering for some of the songs i played. i could not find any audio adjustments for the controlling the sub or individual speaker volumes (I only found the speaker distance adjustment in the setup). If nothing works might need to find a better sub placement

.....

Hi Arvindraj,
1. There is a feature called "Double Bass" in 3571. Try disabling that feature and see if it serves your purpose.
2. In case you find that present bass quality is satisfactory for 90% music /movie cases, then I don't think there is any need to change the subwoofer location permanently. Just fiddle with Bass Tone control to reduce it in the remaining 10% cases.

Regds,
