In my none surround setup, I have the DVD player in two channel from 5.1 mode. with the two channels going to the TV. The sound volume from the dvd is 1/2 the level of all other sources. So I cranck up the vol on the Sony 36XBR to 80% of max for movies. Any idea what is wrong? I use the audio out jacks from a Technics DVD-a10 direct to the TV. I might try the 5.1 main pair?? The DVD player menu is set to two LARGE main in the 5.1 setup. Thanks in advance.

Ahh stupidity... I 'by chance' noticed a small window in the various menus and turned to the owners manual for a bit of comprhension... The menu box was for 'center' channel enhancement in "on/off" and '1' '2' form. Well in '2' it really helps with movies that have multichannel sound. Still not quite as loud as other stuff but a lot better.
Some of the lack of volume experienced on DVD tends to be because there are not really any agreed standards for TV sound record levels, and the greater use of Dynamic range by Digital soundtracks, hence why some dvd's are considerably louder than others. This coupled together with the actual output of the DVD players being quite low anyhow. As you say, the only real option you have is to crank it up a bit, or get a line level amp from a pro audio dealer.Roland
