I know the theory and what you are "supposed" to do, but it seems like I can't bring myself to lower my sub's level so that it reads the same as my other speakers on the spl meter. I have my sub at between 6-7 db higher than my other speakers (using the SPL meter). This is both on my...

My local CC, to my astonishment, agreed to an even swap of my 6 month old Onkyo 700 for a brand new Onkyo 701 (after I pointed out that my 700 had the "ex phase" defect -- but I didn't reveal that I only have a 5.1, not a 6.1 set-up, so that in reality, the defect didn't really effect me at the...
