subwoofer not as loud as before: I was wondering if there was a setting that I might have put on the receiver that could have caused this?

I am no expert but you might try this to test it. If it has two conventional speaker wire terminals, hook them up to the terminals on one of the front speakers (without disconnecting the speaker wires from the tuner to the front speaker). If you get a booming bass you know that the speakers work and maybe it has something to do with you settings on the tuner. As for settings on the tuner, your Speaker Pattern must end with ".1"

There is a level adjust knob on the back of the unit, have you turned the knob up as to not be on "0"? Confirmed the LFE input is properly seated and also that the subwoofer power supply is plugged into your wall outlet?

Mine, too, made a loud pop every time I turned it on. However, it was working otherwise until it lost connection to the subwoofer and started making the clicking (or popping) noise every second or so. None of my ideas for addressing the problem worked except for returning the unit to Amazon, which I am doing.

I have the same setup... mine go into protection mode immediately if the volume is above around the 25 setting. Thats about 65 decibels. Guess Im looking for a new receiver unless anyone has an idea.

I hear mine great, I'd check your receiver settings to make sure the DB level is set properly across all channels (speakers)

R. Williams - Nope. I've run this sub-woofer for countless hours over the years...sometimes under "unusual" circumstances and often with very high demands...it has operated faultlessly. As I noted earlier, "it'll make you happy". It still brings me a solid "lower-end" sound (and feel, too.). I'm thinking that Matthew Robb's reply is right-on. An ill fitting cable can make for a weak ground. Feedback is another possible cause...NAH...not likely. Hope your annoying "super loud buzzing" is soon ended.abez2.

Mine is not comming from the sub. I've disconnected the sub and all the speakers 1 at a time and still have it. I did go into the Direct TV set-up and changed some audio settings and it is now at a lower voluume, but is still there. I thought maybe it was the Direct TV Receiver, but I disconnected it & still get have the hum running the receiver on fm stations.Thanks for the inputP.S. I have the Onkyo TX-SR705, not the 805.

Your two front speakers are still playing because they are driven by your receiver, not the subwoofer. They are just connected through the subsoofer.

The Subwoofer out has to be enabled look at the manual. Also there's a test function to see if the subwoofer is connected correctly.

There is an adjustment knob on the back of the sub. Have you made sure that is turned up?

Make sure when you go to your receiver setings where you change your speakers to larg or small taht you turn on the subwoofer input

Are you sure it isn't the subwoofer? It stays on all the time even when the system is turned off and produces a low level hum, constantly. That seems to be the norm for all the subs and the Onkyo receivers. I was surprised to walk into my media room and hear the hum coming from the sub and the system was turned off. Sub is always in stand by. Just a thought.

Probably time to upgrade your sub. Most receivers use a lfe port to connect your subthis unit doesn't offer high frequency connections for subs. Only to your speakers.

I have not utilized them like that as of yet. From what I have, the subwoofers are decent but I have not turned it up loud enough to test them.

Lately, I put it on the high setting when I am not home, and change it to low when I am home so it is quieter. I have not had it very long, so this may change.
