Hi guys
I ve just purchased the pioneer dv990 home theater system and i m really dissapointed.
When I play music cd s it s performance is outstanding and it can blow your ears off, even in the half volume level.
The problem is when when I m playing dvd s.
Even if I set the volume to the max I don t get a decent power not only from
the sub but from the speakers too.
In loud scenes even the explosions are not loud as they supposed to be.
I don t get it.
Why the cd s play so loud even on the half volume?
i ve tried setting the channel levels as high as they can get but no result.
Midnight Listening Mode is off.

It s driving me crazy.
I know that this system is very powerfull because I ve heard it on stereo cds.
But on dvd s i can t hear it s power.
Please help me.
I m really desperated. :mad:
 
Don't know if this helps and may not be related to your specific problem, but as far as I understand CD will sound louder than a DVD audio mix (I suppose it's down to the way they're encoded etc). I've got the Denon 500 and audio CD's are loud at around the 25 - 30 setting, but DVD's need to be played at around 45-55.
 
thanks for your reply;)
so you re saying that this is normal?
