very little power?

Hi everyone, just installed my mcintosh mx122 and mc207 to my front projector,cable box (Fios), dvd player, cd player, etc. When I play dvds or cds the sound is strong and powerful like it should be but when I play TV I get like 1/5 th the power and sound levels. I have checked all my connections but cannot figure out why everything works but the TV portion. Any suggestions or clues to what may be going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have now tried any and all connections to no end. i have spoken with verizon fios and have changed box and went directley through pass through mode as well as a pcm mode and  still no real volume. Blu ray player works fine as well as cd player and second dvd player just not cable box. Any other suggestions ? Thanks.

Thanks for the input, but pretty sure now I am going to have to live with it as well. I have tried everything including a different box and same results. everything is now hooked up through HDMI and I have the box set on pass through. It helps a tiny bit but not much. Guess I am going to just have to give up watching TV. LOL
