Dear All,
I have just recently replaced an aging Technics receiver with a Pioneer VSX 520, I have used the original "Old" RCA connections and it runs a Technics Powered subwoofer + 5 speaker Bose array.
I could not hear anything through the system (only have a CD player and DVD player connected) and after about 30mins of fiddling about, I turned up the volume and heard the source.
the Volume on this unit numerically goes from 0-80 , I only "start" to hear anything at about 40 and "loudish" comes in at about 65-70. at Maximum it would be loud, but not unbearably so.
I am not much of an audiphile, but it sounds great at 65ish and clarity seems good and everything.
My 1st question, Is this normal?
2nd question I am thinking of using the HDMI input for the DVD player, would a non-expert such as myself notice a difference and would it solve the "Volume control" issue if indeed their is one?
Thanks in advance,
David
