Thanks John. That is exactly what I experienced when I auditione speakers at Axiom. It was easy to test with a receiver that flipped back and forth between stereo and multi channel easily.

I think there is a temptation to set the surrounds a little hot because you want to hear something from those speakers you just paid so much for. I know thats what I did before I picked up the ratshack meter.
