I have a friend who insists on setting his levels with the built in tones from his Denon 2800. Trying to watch a movie at his house will cause your ears to bleed and your teeth to fall out.
I loaned him a SPL meter but he refuses to use the Avia disc to set the levels. I have mine set at 75db from Avia while his is 75db without. His is much much louder. Mine is plenty loud and even uncomfortable for my girlfriend. His literally makes your ears hurt.
The problem is I don't know why it is better to use Avia or even if it is. Please give me some direction.
