Hey Graham--I hear you on that volume level, but I think that my Yamaha (nearly 6 years old now) is just goofy on the numbers. I noticed that the next year's version volume went into the + regions, whereas mine just stops at 0.

There are a few DVDs, like Star Wars II that I can boost to -26 or so without feeling fear about blowing things, but for the most part -30 is plenty.

I should get my RS SPL out and check the decibles to see what the SPLs are. In fact, I'll do that tonight and report back. Maybe I'm just a wanny...

Cheers,
Phil
