Charlie- That's what I initially thought too, but nope. Maybe this makes it a little clearer:

Sp..LF...C....RF...RS...LS...sub
a)..-1..+1...-1....+1...+0...-3..=> Avia via coax digital; 950 levels
c)..-1..-1..-1.5..-1.5...-3...+6..=> Chesky DVD-A via 5.1 analog; 47ai settings

(Hopefully this lines up for most people.) So in this case, you can easily see the extra 10 dB for SACD/DVD-A... If I would now try to set *analog* levels with Avia DVD-V (DD) with the settings in c, the sub's level would be way too high. The DD decoders, whether in the 950 or in the 47ai, internally add 10 dB boost to the LFE level. Something like that anyway.
