This may be due to the fact that Pano2VR uses a non-sharpening anti-
aliasing interpolator. On 
http://wiki.panotools.org/Anti-aliasing_interpolators the Filters 
with ID 18 and higher are sharpening ones (the deeper the 
"depression" on both sides of the peak the more).

I don't know what kind of interpolator CubicConverter uses, but the 
result of a not anti-aliased downsize always gives a sharper 
impression because pixel "jaggies" subjectively look sharper (but 
increase shimmering in the resulting pano - if the viewer doesn't 
anti-alias itself).
