I know mojo talked about this a long time ago, but today I noticed this to be a fact.
If I have the EP600 either daisy chained with my 350's, or if I use a splitter at the receiver it does not seem to matter, the 600 is dropping the dB's by about 6-7dB for each 350.
I thought the Line In and Line Out jacks were just a "pass through" type of connection, but this does not appear to be the case for the EP subs.
I found this out because I tried hooking up just 1 or 2 350s (daisy chained) with the 600 not in the loop. If I calibrate each sub to 75dB's individually, then turn them both on, I get about a 3dB+ increase, which makes sense. However, as soon as I incorporate the 600 into the daisy chain, or have it on its own line split at the receiver, the dB's for the 350's drop about 6-7dB's per the meter.
This explains why I have to have my 600 volume knob so lowwwwwwww (about 6 o'clock) and my 350's about 3/4 cranked to achieve the same dB reading on my SPL meter.
This seems crazy, and is causing habic with me setting up Audyssey. I may call Axiom to see what they have to say..
