    Consequently, when using the DSP-A1 you can zero out the DVD-S1500’s bass management with all SACD sources (remember, DVD-A is locked in with no bass management to begin with) and then get uniform bass management from all inputs, analog or digital: CD, DVD-A, SACD, DD, and DTS.

    for a CD). This is down only 20 dB, which is 10 times the value of the 40 dB in the fast mode. (Remember, decibels are in logs; hence a doubling in decibels is a 10x increase.)
