RE: Low Volume on Philips 701

Sorry Eric, I haven`t done the remote hack yet. I want to sort this one step at a time and only currently have access to region 2 dvds. If you have any good ideas about where to get region 1 gear I`d be interested for the future, but I still feel that my sound is in need of attention.

Low Volume on Philips 701

I have just aquired this (my first) machine and am very happy with it as it runs VCDs no problem and also music CDRs, but am unsure about the volumes I`m getting. Sone Wega sounds fine, but DVD sounds muted by comparison through TV surround sound system. Have connected via Scart. Am I doing it wrong? I have tried phonos from DVD to Hi-Fi amp and independant speakers and also phonos from TV to Hi-Fi amp(with DVD then going through Scart)and independant speakers, but still feel that the DVD is muted compared to TV, Video or just plain old music system. Is there a `fix` for this or is it just that I`m missing some salient point as a newbie? Any advice or offers of assistance appreciated.
