Is 6channel output less spl than digital optical in the LFEeno45
Oct 7, 2001 11:28 AM
I just got a new JVC dvd with DVD-audio.

First movie playback from both 6 channel output(6 analog rca cables from JVC decoder) and Digital optical wire sound the same in the 5 main speakers. Not a big difference at all between the two decoders in volume. Now the big difference lies in the signal to the subwoofer when using the 6 channel output from the JVC. I have to turn my gain on my subwoofer up about twice than what it needs if I am using the digital optical wire. See If I was only going to watch movies there wouldn't be a problem and I wouldn't of bought 6 rca cables for the JVC 6 channel output and would strictly use the Digital optical wire, BUT since DVD-audio requires the 6 analog wires why is there such a loss in signal going to my sub. All the JVC settings are set for the maximum output to the subwoofer for bass response. IS there a known issue for less LFE(bass) reponse while using the RCA cables(6 channel)
than using the digital optical???? Let me know If you have any ideas. Thank you

The different outputs may have different output levels, yes.
You may also have to level match the DVD players 6 ch. output as you did the receiver but need to do it in the DVD menu.
