Is it just me?....I listen to a lot of music via high level sub connection (stereo amp) and watch a fair few movies with low level connection. It seems to me that the bass is more noticeable and seemingly powerful with the high level stereo amp connection, than it is with the low level av amp connection. Obviously all the dials on the back remain in the same position....low level filter 20hz, high level 120hz, volume gain around 10-11 o clock, and crossover at 80hz.
Should this be the case??
For instance, spin a music dvd and sure, the bass is there, the cone is moving when it should be etc etc, but is it a thing with say DTS or Dolby Digital, that the sound is processed "differently"?
It's not that i am unhappy with the sound....far from it. It just seems "heavier" with the high level connection.
It seems apparent on music dvd's, but, spin a movie....especially one of the "big bass" ones, such as Cloverfield, and the sub about blows me out of the house!!!
Like i say, i've no problem with it, i'm just curious.
