Default db scale volume on higher-end receivers
I'm not sure if any of you have thought about this, or I am just stating the obvious, but I was a little confused as to why some receivers have volume markings from - infinity db through 0db (which can be awfully loud) to about +18db. After doing it on a pre-amp, I realized 0db was about the same as just coming straight out of a stereo RCA line out on the back of the Blu Ray player, so anything below 0db is lower than line level in the pre-amp and anything more, is cranked up that little bit extra. So on a full amplified receiver, the volume is not adjusting the amplifier, but is adjusting the pre-amplified signal?
