Hello Sir,
First, please understand that this is not a problem. Next, please
understand that this "issue" is only with the multi input. Finally, I would
like to take a few lines to elaborate on what exactly what the "issue" is.
Please understand that DVD Audio and SACD are 5.0 format. This means
that
under normal circumstances you will not have a .1 signal (no L.F.E.-Low
Frequency Effect output), versus when listening to Dolby Digital, and DTS
which are 5.1(digital
subwoofer output). In some of our earlier units Rotel has taken the liberty
to add a feature. This feature allows the end user to enjoy a subwoofer
signal out when listening to a 5.0 format only through the multi input, by
manipulating the analog signal coming in to the multi input.
Fortunately you do have the ability to turn your multi input subwoofer
off through your menu options, which will allow you to listen to your DVD
Audio and other 5.0 formats the way they where intended (with no subwoofer
signal).
