first do the -2dB gain an after normalize, then the first operation is useless.
If first normalize and after apply -2dB, or better if take the value -2dB to limit to normalize, the process can be solved with only one pass.

Sorry I am not sure if I understand you correctly...
I did try your command line with "-normalize -2dB", and the result is that eac3to first applies a -2db gain decrease and afterwards normalizes to 0dB again. Here is the log:

Done.

I want to limit the normalize gain to a max peak value of -2dB, how can I achieve this with eac3to?
Another question about the command line generated by StaxRip:
Is the "down16" parameter meaningful? Does libaften cause problems with an input which has a higher bit depth?
