Think, yes, that's what I mean. If you boost
the other channels for a match, but then reduce
the overall volume by the same 10 dB, you will
be back at the desired level while having the
match you're trying for.
Larry, many on here have said that you should calibrate your system at a given volume or "reference" level. Most have also said that you should stay at this reference level to be assured that all channels are still matched. I thought that if you strayed from this volume setting, that your channels are most likely no longer matched. For example, if I calibrated all of my channels to 75db at a volume control setting of -27db, than I should always have my overall volume set to -27db while viewing a DVD. You are saying that I could set my volume control 10db higher to -17 db (this is how my volume control works, #'s get lower the louder it gets with -00 being the lowest and 00 being the max.)and I would now be listening to 85db. Isn't this contrary to what most people preach on here?
