I was having trouble hearing a certain scene of dialogue. I was told to change bitstream to PCM. When I did, the dialogue WAS easier to hear. The problem is that if I use PCM, there is practically no bass.

For example, during the intro of Jurassic Park, when the titles appear, there is a huge deep boom noise. With bitstream, you can almost feel the boom in your chest. But if I run that scene with PCM, there's no bass at all. Going from bitstream to PCM is the only setting change I made...other than turning off BD secondary audio.

Any ideas why this is happening ? Should I turn the subwoofer up ? Currently it's set at +2 on mode settings, while it's set at, I think, 0 on the setup done with the microphone. I could be wrong about these settings, though

Need more info about your source, gear and settings involved but at a guess your PCM is 2.0 channel, rather than multich PCM (LPCM), and has no LFE.
