I don't know if all brands of receivers are the same, but on the onkyo, I am curious. If I choose not to go with the audessey, and choose my own settings, is there a certain db level to start with
for the front.... center... surrounds...and do I keep the sub at 0db through all frequency range?
63hz
250hz
1000hz
4000hz
16000hz
These are the available frequencies to be adjusted manually. Does the auto-cal (?) adjust a broader range of frequencies? Is it better to let the auto-cal setup or do it manual?

I recently rearranged my living room. I then re-autocal, and audessy set the db level on all channels so low that I had to crank the volume at least 3/4 of the way just to obtain comfortable listening level.
