I need a refresher on calibration. I first calibrated my system at 75db but I have recently added a dedicated amp with more power so I decided to calibrate to 85db as recommended for the AVIA. I first set my receiver volume dial to 70 and set all the speaker levels to 0. I then played the pink noise and adjusted the speaker levels till they read the following: Left +2, Center -1, Right +2, Rt. surround -1, and LT. surround +2. I have two subs; should they be calibrated to 85db also or should they be a couple db higher. When I calibrated I adjusted them for 85db; however, I popped in the Matrix and the bass is not quite as pronounce as when I calibrated to 75db. Maybe I did something wrong. Finally, I know setting the volume and adjusting the speakers makes all the speakers sound flow together; however, when I watch movies should I adjust the volume to the level for listening. Anyones help is greatly appreciated.
Equipment
Receiver H/K AVR55
Amp Parasound 855a
Speakers Axiom M3(fronts), VP100(center), QS4(surrounds), EP125 sub, and Infinity BU2 sub
