Maybe it is set low (for example, -45db) and needs to be set for maximum volume output. Your DAC must have it volume set for maximum signal output to your Luxman amplifier.

Make sure you are selecting the BAL-1 or BAL-2 on the remote, and make sure all the lights under the meter are off except for LINE STRAIGHT. Check the back of your DAC to see if there is an output level switch. Of course, you may have cables wired with the wrong ground so switch even to cheapies to see.

As we recommended above, we suggest you confirm the volume control on your DAC is set to the maximum volume (level). As @erik_squires noted, the output level switch may be on the back of the DAC (or some level setting on the front of the DAC). Please keep us updated. Thanks..
