Re: Crossover Frequency and DB level


Hello Arun and welcome to the Shack!

I have a Denon 3806 and my volume really doesn't get loud until I reach about -10db. I can't imagine anything being wrong with having to turn it up to -10db or even 0db to get it loud as you want.

However... you can take your speaker levels and adjust them all upwards by say 5db... in other words your levels from May 8th would look like this:

Speaker Level check
Front Left: +5.0db
Fron right: +5.5 db
Center: +5.0db
Surround Left: +3.5db
Surround Right: +5.0db
Surround Back: +5.5db
Subwoofer: -5.5db


This will give you more range (and loudness) prior to reaching -20db.
