Is this the reason i feel like i lost "power" adding the ms-8 into the mix?

With just the xd800 powering my system, i was at 9 o'clock with all my amp gain settings, and HU was around 50%, which is where i like my volume to be most of the time.

With the ms-8 in line, i have to go to around 75% volume at HU to get the same volume. MS-8 system level is around -6db after calibration (-25db during calibration).

Is there any way to boost that MS-8 output voltage without going higher than -6db on the system level setting? I heard there is some hidden menu somewhere ...
Why?
