The volume is plenty loud enough when playing the tuner, but when you switch it to TV or DVD, the volume is VERY low. Maximum is 75, and it must be turned up to 50-60 just to watch a movie. If a button was accidently pressed & the receiver switched over to a radio station, it would blow you away. Any ideas what could be causing this? |

Anonymous | If it is like my Denon, you can set different sound levels on each source by bumping up the decible levels going to each speaker. I have evened mine out for all sources and it works quite nicely now. Even bumped the center channel up for watching dvd movies so you can hear the dialogue easily now. Used a sound level meter also to even out the fronts and the surrounds. |
