Dave,The digital attenuation in the Denon is done in the DACs digital filter. I have no idea what bits are shifted and how loss-less the attenuation is, but disabling the attenuation brings up 6dB and it sounds appreciably better. Go figure....
Also, in the SACD1000, if you look at the data stream with CD you can clearly see 24 bits, but the level was still attenuated with 6dB. Format is I2S. However, certain manufacturer was changing the NV-RAM software for the PCM decoder in order to get rid of the attenuation which resulted in much better sonics. The CS4396 DACs in the Philips do not have digital attenuation so it had to be done in the DSP.

Alex
