But unless the manufacturer of a given DVD-Audio or SACD player come out and tell you exactly how they're mixing things, it's kinda hard to tell.
Maybe my +6dB is just fine for the .1 LFE channel, but it might be too much, or not enough to compensate for the bass from the 5 other channels.
This shouldn't be this messy.
How many receivers have a seperate bass level control for just the 5.1/7.1 input(s)?Yeah, I've yet to see any maker acually specify how the bass redirection is done. I'm also not aware of any receivers that have a seperate bass level control for the 5.1/7.1 channel input. Someone should make a wide bandwidth gain control (actually it doesn't even have to be wide BW since it's only Low Frequency) that has just a simple RCA in and a RCA out. I think it would be pretty easy and simple to make. I might have to have a little fun with an op-amp and a potentiometer. I don't have any real issue with the bass management in the Sony SACD player. It's just that I don't want to re-adjust my reciever every time I change between a DD/DTS or SACD.
