Doug:

The problem is that if Outlaw designed it this way, it is opposite to what you are describing. My sub offset is never positive and has always been negative - like -5dB to -8dB. That means that the Stereo and Upsample will run HOTTER than the sub by 5 to 8 db and make them louder.

I agree that we should run 2-channel music quieter. The 2CH Offset for the sub only goes to -6dB.

That means that if I want to equalize my sub and it results in a -8dB offset for the sub, the Stereo and Upsample will run 8dB louder than the sub - even if I enable the 2CH Offset for the sub, the Stereo and Upsample will be 2dB HOTTER than the sub.

It still doesn't make sense why this works this way. The sub offset should be global for any input that utilizes the crossover.
