    Volume Discrepency on New DTV Receiver

    A new DTV receiver was installed in our clients home (I don't know the model number, but it's the "new" new looking DVR that has a full flush front). Anyway, the issue is the volume output is really, really low - it comes up on -2db and that is barley audible. Any ideas on this problem?? Thanks.

    Exterior Wall Grommet/Sealent

    5-LNB/On-Demand Questions

    I'm a a/v intagrator and always contract out for my DirecTV needs (I leave it to the pros), but I met with a client today and based on what I saw thought I'd hit you all with a few questions so I can get a better idea of what's going on. He has a typical (but a bit old) distrubution set up in...
