RE: SERIOUSLY THIS TIME!! VCD/CDR/CDRW/MP3 AND DVD WITH MULTI REGION but it aint the 3350

I see a reference in this thread about the Aiwa 370 having a PAL/NTSC switch. Does this model truly have such an animal? If so, is it a physical switch or a "soft" switch (hack)? How can it be accessed?

Thanks, Robin.

RE: SOUND OUTPUT ON LG 3350E, CAN IT BE IMPROVED? please advise

I have an Aiwa 370. From what I`ve been reading in this forum, this model and the the LG-series players seem to have a common lineage. I have a similar (but not identical) volume problem. On my Aiwa, the level of the DVD audio is good. It matches that of my normal TV tuner. However, when I play an audio CD in the Aiwa the volume is much louder. It actually causes the amp in my TV to clip!

Does your LG player have CD capability? If so, how does the CD volume compare to the DVD volume? Is the CD volume louder?

Thanks, Robin.

P.S. - I`d appreciate any info on volume level hacks, if they exist.

RE: Aiwa 370 - Audio CD playback seems loud??

Thanks for the response. I should have mentioned that the volume level for the same audio discs played through a conventional CD player using the same audio input on the TV matches the nominal volume of the TV (in other words, everything else being the same, CDs are not loud when played through a conventional CD player).

It seems like a short-coming of the Aiwa 370 if the audio level difference you speak of was not compensated for in the design of the player.

Thanks again for your response, Robin.

Aiwa 370 - Audio CD playback seems loud??

I recently purchased an Aiwa XD-DV370 DVD player in the USA. DVD video/audio playback is great! However, my CD audio playback seems loud... over-driven, actually to the point of distortion.

If I set the volume on my TV to a nominal level while watching a DVD (or while using the TV tuner itself), and then switch to a CD, the volume level of the CD output is significantly higher. It actually causes my TVs audio to clip! Also, CD audio seems to drop out from time to time.

Has anyone else experienced these problem?

Thanks, Robin.
