Well, I found a workaround. I don't know if others have had this
problem, but here's what I did. I had an old Fisher Equalizer. I stuck
that in between the MVP1000 and my Receiver. I then jacked all the bars
to the top. I think it raised it about 12db and now it's an acceptable
level. 

Thanks,
James
