I agree with Peter. I don't have this receiver (yet), but I have the Acoustimass 7 series, and whenever I set up a component (BD player, DVD-Audio player, etc), I set it up as if I have large speakers, but NOT a subwoofer. I'm assuming that the Acoustimass 10 (like the 7) does NOT connect to the subwoofer connections on the back of the receiver. So if you're running this Audyssey test as if you have a subwoofer, it's trying to test something that's not there.

It sounds like you shouldn't run Audyssey with Bose speakers. Just go through the tone test and try to level out the output. Then adjust to ear. The bass module isn't a true subwoofer so there may be problems there. Also, Bose is rather...um, proprietary about their products, so it doesn't surprise me to see the speakers don't "play well with others".

Additional cube speakers cannot be connected through the Acoustimass bass module. In theory, you could use a non-cube center channel (Bose no longer sells center channel speakers) and some other Bose speakers for surround. Additional cube speakers cannot be used with the Acoustimass 5 bass module.

I have a newer system (V35), and all connections MUST go though the bass module. However, I think the Acoustimass system can be hooked up directly to the Receiver. I have talked to technical support at Bose, and they are very responsive and helpful, so I would suggest you give them a call.

i set up the "before" receiver, which was just an older onkyo 2-channel stereo receiver, and the new receiver (820). the 820 sounds good, but it doesn't sound as full, nor as deep, as the onkyo. i think it must just have internal settings that don't allow it to send those deepest bass tones to the front speakers, because i tweaked every possible thing. i appreciate the help though...and i've definitely had the wires crossed before as well -- makes a huge difference

Hi Dennis, Try pressing the test tone button on the remote, and see if your getting sound from all speakers. Also, did you use the RCA cables from the BD player to the Onkyo? ( one for each speaker ) Don't forget to choose the right format from the Blu-ray disk ( Dolby truehd / DTS HD master audio ) If your still having a problem, let me know..I can probably walk you through a little more detail.

I have problems with my receiver speaker icon does not appear or sound. Unfortunately latter are Onkyo amplifiers. Do not recommend.

Definitely ! Front pre outs from 818 to Emotiva to front speakers. You'll have to run the Audyssey to setup for HT to make sure all speaker levels are ok. For hi fi (cd , phono , etc) I would experiment with stereo, direct, p. direct to see what sounds better. Also , some audyssey movie settings may not sound great in stereo . Lots of tweaking ! Have fun ! Lou

Sorry, but I don't know if Bose speakers would work but I have successfully connected to a variety of BT devices and see no reason why a name brand like Bose would not work also.

The Acoustimass module is NOT powered! The speaker wires come into the module from your receiver and then back out to the cubes!

Be careful, All units are not compatable. We ahd to call bose to do a match. (had to send one back- older model)So I would suggest call bose first they are very helpful.

I have no idea on that one, what you might want to do is start a discussion on here[like I did about speaker dock]. There is probably somebody out there that has had the same problem and can help you or lead you in the right direction. good luck

I agree with the other comment. If possible, pair with another device to ensure that it is not the speakers. I love these speakers :>

It looks like to me that the acoustimass sub takes the normal high level speaker outputs, filters that and outputs to the satellites. The satellites plug into the sub it looks. Go to bose.com and read the acoustimass manual. I answered another question from another on this just tonight

I just bought the speakers and paired them with Denon AVR-S500BT; awesome. The price is similar to Onkyo but Denon has the auto calibration tool. The setup is also very easy, just another option for you to consider.Either way, it should work.

They have a program setup for this issue. They will repair it for free or give you a $100 rebate to buy a different Onkyo receiver. https://repair.onkyousa.com/na/

Mr Clark I am not able to answer your question at this time. We are working on getting our new system set up and are making sure our speaker system will match up. I have found that contacting R/S Cust Service to be helpful with some of our concerns in setting up our system. If you don't get the answer to your question there, I have found that local audio shops can also be helpful. BC
