In Reply to: Denon AVR-3806 Low Volume? posted by orangeshasta@gmail.com on February 8, 2008 at 15:21:27:
As the other 2 posters have pointed out, the 0 db points may not be the same. The volume control on my Denon 2807 can be adjusted up to somewhere around +10 db plus or minus a few dB depending on any adjustments made to particular input levels and also depending on variations in channel level also. Any EQ settings like Audyssey that you're using with the Denon can also have an impact, both on the apparent loudness of the sound in the room and also in how hard the power amp stages are working at higher volume levels and how much volume level adjustment you're allowed as a result. The Kenwood may reach max volume at 0 dB or even a bit lower depending on how it deals with some of those other factors.
With the analog inputs there's probably also a different amount of gain in the pre-amp stages and that will affect how high you need to set the volume setting, which controls the power amp stages, in order to get equal volume from both. In addition, the input stages of both may have slightly different sensitivities.
