| Re: HD channel volume vs. analog channel volume
I have a HD8300 too. I used to have a Bell ExpressVu 9200 which was a lot worse for volume discrepancies. I believe it lies in the compression of the signal. Analog channels have no compression where as the digital ones do. They do that to squeeze in more channels. Compare a 1080i movie with DD soundtrack to the same on a cable broadcast and you'll see a difference in picture and sound. All due to compression and noise. The cable and satellite boxes are far from audiophile grade too so that will come into play also.
