I'll have to re-check everything, but I am pretty anal about such issues myself. In my set-up, movies go to my pre/pro via a coaxial digital connection. Therefore they are level balanced in the pre/pro.
For DVD-A, I run via the 5.1 analog connection through my pre/pro which is a straight analog pass-through. Level matching for the DVD-A is done via the controls in the player since they don't effect the Coax output.
In short - both set-ups should run correctly albeit via different settings and controls, since they are both level matched independently.
Don't get me wrong...The DVD-A is still pretty good. But for some reason the plain old CD version of The Blue Man Group's "Audio" is incredible - so much so it is potentially damaging. It is the
only disk I own that I am at all cautious about when I play it loud.
Also be aware that I am comparing the CD "Audio" to the DVD-A "Complex". I didn't even realize there was a DVD-A version of "Audio". I'll have to order it now.
