Since yesterday I have a 7.2 receiver with a suitable setup. Have NEN active sub and then a passive one that gets juice over the two front connections and then the speakers go away. With AirPlay or Bluetooth everything goes without problems, only the receiver is now on my ps4, I have to set the speakers to small at the front so that the active bass works. So the bass is no longer available at the front and I also had bass reflex boxes at the front which also had juice but they no longer have bass. Can it be helped?
Which receiver do you have?
Sony str-dn840 should be a problem with the ps4 but not with the receiver
Are you buying a full-fledged AV receiver and then connecting the speakers to the subwoofer?
What's the point?
With an AV receiver you connect the speakers directly and I would then also connect the PS4 directly
I already had the sub before the receiver and until recently it was the main sub on my old receiver because I didn't have an active one, but that's the case with passive ones. The ps4 hangs directly on the receiver via hdmi, unfortunately, no help to solve my problem
Solution: Connect the loudspeakers DIRECTLY to the AV receiver, also the active subwoofer, omitting the passive subwoofer
And then make the appropriate speaker settings in the receiver menu
SO everyone else would connect and configure such a system
Then the front speakers on small continue to run without bass or the sub when the fronts are on large not at all
I want bass from both the fronts and the bass and not just the bass or the speakers. There's obviously a problem with the ps4 or in the setting of the receiver because when I pair my cell phone or other devices I can use everything without bickering
Front run on small? Means what?
The active subwoofer supports the bass, that's what it is for and not the front speakers
So with our system it is so that if only stereo is supplied, the front speakers more or less provide the bass
the PS4 should deliver DD or something and thus address the channels accordingly, so that they are used correctly according to their assignment
My fronts are bass reflex boxes, which I think is good because they should also play along with the bass, if the fronts are on small, they take over the area that the sub does not normally take over and the sub can work, vice versa. The problem only occurs with the ps4. With the cell phone, I can also have the fronts on large, these then take up the range of the subs with these frequencies and the sub works anyway
I'm talking about 7.1 or 5.1 and not 2 or 2.1. If I clamp my old receiver with 5.1 on which has 15 years more on it, everything goes without problems. The ps4 is only attached to it optically, which is semi-optimal
How about then if you turn to Sony and deal with them?!
PS4 is from them, the receiver is also from them…
At Sony, some Indians answer that they can't even speak German properly, no front but they don't help me that's why I'm here
