Do not know if subwoofer is working?

bad sub or amp. test your sub with a 9-12 volt battery not a car battery!!! more like a drill battery with low amp rating (don't leave power to it very long or could wreck your sub coil). if that work. then test your amp with a working output if you have a friend with a system hook it up in there car to see if it will work. pawn shops test amps tell them you want to sell it and they will test it and then decline their offer. lol just thought of that on the spot.

Have the pioneer vsx-1016txv-k - During MCACC setup It indicates an error with the rear right surround speaker. Yet during play in db mode - Neo & etc the RRS speaker works! RRS does not work during the MCACC set up. Can you help resolve. Thank You Joe

Did you get a manual with it? According to the Sony site this speaker originates in Sony MHC-GX450.

"This product bundle includes the following models:
HCD-GX450 - STEREO MINI SYSTEM
RM-SC3 - REMOTE CONTROL for Shelf Mini Systems
SSRG444 - FRONT SPEAKER FOR MHCGX450
SS-WG450 - SUBWOOFER FOR MHCGX450"


Find the manual here and learn a bit about your seprated sub...

See page 7.

As can be seen, the subwoofer has two connections to the mothership, very unlike the standard speaker level (+/-) speaker wire or RCA-Line-Level subwoofer out that 'normal passive or active subwoofers use, respectively.

Not knowing which of those your unspecified Pioneer receiver supports, it is impossible to say. Does your Pioneer have that control jack?

Mini-systems are generally not designed to be pieced out and used with grown-up gear. The absence of standardized connections is the clue.

It would appear the unit thinks your McAAC microphone is inserted. Is it?

Automatically setting up for surround

sound (Auto MCACC)

The Auto MCACC Setup measures the acoustic characteristics of your listening area, taking into account

ambient noise, speaker size and distance, and tests for both channel delay and channel level. After you have set

up the microphone provided with your system, the receiver uses the information from a series of test tones

to optimize the speaker settings and equalization for your particular room.

Make sure you do this before moving on to Playing a source on page 11.

Important

• Make sure the microphone and speakers are not moved during the Auto MCACC Setup.

• Using the Auto MCACC Setup will overwrite any existing settings for the MCACC preset you select.

• Before using the Auto MCACC Setup, the headphones should be disconnected and the iPod

USB, XM or SIRIUS Radio function should not be selected as an input source.

1 Switch on the receiver and your TV.

2 Connect the microphone to the MCACC SETUP MIC

jack on the front panel.

Place the microphone so that it's about ear level at your normal listening position (use a tripod if possible). Make

sure there are no obstacles between the speakers and the microphone.

The Auto MCACC display appears once the microphone is connected.1

Note

1 • You can't use the System Setup menu in either the main or sub zone when the iPod USB, XM or SIRIUS Radio input source is selected. When you set ZONE 2 to ON (page 61), you can't use the System Setup menu.
• If you cancel the Auto MCACC Setup, or leave an error message

etc.

It's all in the manual.

Some background on the process...

http://www.pioneer.eu/eur/products/42/98/tech/AVAmplifierReceiver/AF_MCACC.html

Either your ambient noise level is too high for the test, or you need to increase the volume for the test tones.

For any such audio calibration testing your ambient noise level should be as quiet as possible, preferably below the measurable level of an SPL meter...usually 50dB for most models.

you can "release" the error by pressing the "down arrow" and the "zone 2 on/off" for 2 seconds.

I would say check the cable version not everyone knows this but there are different version HDMI cables such as 1.0,1.1,1.2 and the newest 1.3 cable these are band-with depended cables and if you use a lower version this should work if not you might have a issue with video.

Other then that you might have a issue with the unit if all other signals are working on the monitor.. Ruling out this will be hard if you do not have another monitor to test it on. I would be conducting a test on other output monitors and see if you get any results.

Possibly check the wires on the cartridge, make sure none of them are touching and are not bent to badly, are all the connections tight? some cartridges require plastic sleeves over the connections, this insure they don't touch and
avoids resistances between them. Also some cartridges are not compatible with certain model turn tables.Is it universal? Also you my need a mixer most turntables don't work with amps alone. Mine don't. Usually most models you attach the ground wire to the mixer. A mixer boosts table power and take stress off the amp. Hope this helped! good luck!

From your alternator, Make sure none of your RCA's are near a power wire, check your grounds as well.
