Quick question, I got a Toshiba SD2109 Player connected with Component Video Cables, Monster Interlink 300MKII 1m cables to a Pioneer VSX-305 Rec. I notice that when I switch between the DSS connected through a Panasonic HIFI VCR that the sound on the DVD needs to be turned up pretty high to get hear. Then when I switch back to DSS/VCR it is blasting. Any ideas on what to do about this? Should I be using different cables? Is there a volume adjustment of some sort on the DVD? Help!!!

This is just how DVDs in Dolby Digital are recorded... there's not too much you can do about it.

Even in Prologic mode it does this? I do not have Dolby Digital

Yes... even on ProLogic. Remember that *ALL* DVDs are recorded in Dolby Digital (or DTS, but that's another story). From 1 channel (mono) up to 6 channels. If you get a 2 channel Stereo mix, it can have Dolby ProLogic encoding from which your receiver can pick out the rear and center channels. This is sometimes called "Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround".

Interesting. I have the exact opposite effect with my Dishplayer and SD 3108. Remember though, that the DD soundtrack on a DVD is mixed for a full blown movie theater. So the soundtrack will be lound (Daniel is correct, there is nothing you can do, unless you equipment has r-eq circuitry).

Actually, it's not re-eq you need, but "dynamic compression". It raises the lows and lowers the highs, for sound more like a VHS tape.
