Video Asylum

Hi,

I own this player since 4 weeks now.
In addition to video, I use it to listen to audio, therefore CDs, SACDs, DVD-A.

I set it up to "2 Channel" but what I have noticed is that the output level is very high.
If I put my pre-power amplifier volume to "0" and put on a CD, I can hear the music out of my speakers (although not loud).
If I do the same test with my TV, same story, I can slighly hear the music out of the TV speakers.
I use a good scart for the TV connection, and a good audio cable for the audio connection of the player (RCA) to the pre-power amp.(5 pin DIN).
I don't think this is normal, and although I found the possibility to reduce the channel level till -10dB, getting close with my ears to the speakers I can still hear something.

I have a NAIM NAC 72 pre-power amplifier, its CD Input is 75mV/100kOhm and to my opinion, it is the standard value.

Does anybody know why this problem?

Thanks for any help.
