Getting no response from the sub on an 805 - any settings to change?

Guys, just setup my 805 after having it sat in the living room for 7/8 months (very long story...). Just doing audessy and I get no response on the sub at all. When playing any movies / music / ps3, no bass from the sub.

There is the "thump" from the sub when I switch the amp on/off which indicates to me that the signal is being sent/received, but why am I getting no bass? Is there something which needs to be adjusted in the onkyo settings?

I have tried 2 subs (one from my downstairs system) and this is happening on both, so it appears to be the 805 which is the problem.

Any ideas?

LOL - cheers mate, I was just about to come on and ask for this post to be deleted......as I had made THAT exact mistake I just noticed it when pulling the cable out for about the 100th time today - thinking "what's that second purple one....oh, it's in the pre-out section......" Ooooops!
