I just got a Freeview digital video recorder which works fine. . . except that all recorded programs sound much quieter than when watching them straight from the TV. So I did a bit of research and came up with this titbit from cnet.
"Great increases in sound quality can be had by using the digital audio outputs and hooking the PVR up to an external amplifier"
Sorry for sounding stupid, but they don't elaborate on what sort of an amp might be suitable. Are they talking about the type of amp used in a music system? Or is there some kind of special mini amp that's mainly for using with Freeview/Sky boxes?
Also, would the amp come into play if I was watching the TV through the Freeview box (instead of the TV's built-in Freeview?) Or would it only affect recorded programs?
Any help would be welcome, because I want to get the amp asap. Thank you
