Using REW, there's a difference between running PC analog to the BFD directly vs PC digital output to the AVR and AVR sub out to BFD.
I'm assuming you ran the soundcard calibration, which uses the analog connections. If you keep that cal file and use the SPDIF output you will be compensating for low freq roll-off in the analog output stage which is no longer there, hence the boosted displayed results there. If you have not run soundcard cal you will still see a boost (of half as much) at frequencies below the point the analog output's low feeq response starts to roll off.
