I apologize to anyone who feels like I have beaten this to death, but wanted one last set of eyes from the DIY folks, just to make sure I am not missing anything.  I like the results that I get from the eq that miniDSP applies, and have been informed to just turn up the gain on the subs after putting it in line.  I just want to make sure I don't have anything set up incorrectly before permanently putting it in line.  After poking around, I saw that I had a couple of settings wrong, fixed them and rechecked, and believe it or not, it is better than it used to be:

 



 

I have heard from several stating they lost about 3 dB, but 8 just seems...unusual?  If the consensus is that it is totally normal I will just crank the gain and slap it in line.  It is currently set up for .9V, and I have not switched it to 2V since fixing some issues I had.  Previously, the 2v setting did not work very good at all, but not sure if it works any better now that I have it set up better(I had it in mono with output on 1 and 2 versus 1 and 3, as I did not have the wonky high and lo filters bypassed on channel 3.  This was causing no output on 3, so I used 1 and 2.  Which only worked because I had it set to mono.  All filters are currently bypassed, no eq, gain to zero, and no change made to MV, sub gains, or trim levels.

The first thing I'd be worried about is the .9 setting. I would think the receiver you are running would be possible to clip the inputs on the mini fairly easily at that setting.
