BUT everytime i turn it off, or even switch video inputs, it puts everything back at 0db, (supposed to be +4 for surrounds, +2 for front and rear centers) i don't want to have to keep changing it!! ive looked through the manual, and found out nothing....anyone have this problem? i know a few of you have the 6070 thanks |
