Is subwoofer popping normal? - Blu-ray Forum

Go Blue · 03-15-2009, 10:07 PM

When the receiver switches audio tracks, is it normal for the sub to pop? For example, going from the menu of a movie (2ch) to the actual movie (5ch). Is my volume too high?

no, i would say its not normal. my sub never pops or anything until its needed to rumble

I would say this is not normal too, and you are having trouble with your center channels volume level? I think maybe you need to start thinking about if there is something wrong with the receiver.

When you turn off most powered subwoofers, it is normal to hear a popping sound, but it is not normal when you change options from a menu.

I would say it is normal. My system does it almost every time it switches tracks.

I wouldn't have thought much of it, but I don't remember it happening before.

I've never heard of or experienced that before. It's definitely not normal.

Well, it is not exactly due to changing options exactly, it is doing what Driver King said above. Popping when audio tracks are changed.
