    I noticed that when the meter reached the 75 db level that the volume was really high. I figured this was out of line and my 'ref'level would be too high as well.

    Amazon has the DVD onsale. You know the one that is spposed to give a better picture and sound after using it. My guess is that it will be too complicated to get anything out of it. Has anyone been satisfied with their results??? I hope I am not getting myself into anything tricky. Ryan
