Why is it that once I perform a calibration on my Onkyo 875 that the maximum volume has been limited. Before the Audyssey calibration it was not limited but now the receiver will only go up to about -8db whereas the maximum volume goes up to +18db. Most of the time I find that -8db is enough but sometimes the input source is low and I need to extra power in the receiver.
My Onkyo has an option to set the maximum volume electronically within the settings (likely to keep little kids or teens from cranking the volume to 100% and blowing the receiver). Audyssey may have turned this option on when the default is normally off.
Welcome to the world of "Odd"yssey.
Check your Onkyo manual for this option. You should be able to turn it off again.
