Well, from what I understand, it's not a bug, it's a difference in encoding or something. Someone else can explain it; I didn't understand when I read it. In short, I calibrate the sub at 80 or 85 dB and I calibrate the speakers at 70 or75 dB. Which, now that I think about it, makes no sense. Oh well...

It has been discussed around. The conclusion seems to be that DVE is not compensated to take the LFE boost into account.
In addition, its spectral width is wider than the indicated 40-80Hz and goes below 40 Hz. So, a good sub that can reproduce 20-to-40 Hz will output this additional power, which will result in an increase of SPL.
As it is pointed here the levels should be 6-8 dB hot when using DVE .
