Re: I think I have a problem.


My subs are on +3.5 and the LFE setting is at 0 on a -10 to 0 range. I could crank it up a bit but, previously, It'd just mean turning down the gain on the subs themselves (at about 1 o'clock). Once I've got the BFD in the chain though I guess I'll be cutting frequencies and that are domainating or, probably, overpowering that nice, clean, defined bass.

Actually, hang on, I'm not sure if I know what I'm talking about! I'm putting the BFD into the HT chain, not the music chain. The HT chain is already decoded by the HTPC by the time it reaches the pre-ins. I can drop the volume of the other channels and increase the sub channel though, that'll just mean I need to turn the reciever up. It's odd, my reciever which has multi-channel ins and pre-outs is still able to affect the volume when it's, apparently, performing pass-through. But that's something for another day.

The short answer is that all channels are running at the same volumes from the soundcard.
