In setting up the Aperions and Axioms, of course I ran the Full Band MCACC on my SC-55. The system came up with the following:
- Aperion*******Axiom
- L ** +2.0 ****** 0.0
- C ** -2.5 ****** -4.5
- R ** +3.0 ****** -0.5
- SR** +4.0 ****** -2.0
- SL** +6.5 ****** -2.0
- SW -12.0 ****** -11.0
(Sorry, can't get the UBB fixed spacing to work on here. If anyone knows how to keep the spacing, let me know).
When I first started listening to the Aperions, I was like, wow, these are really clean and sound great, then i realized that with these settings they should sound louder. Judge Dredd sounded awesome (I know, but its sound track is great for testing surround speakers. So now I put the Axioms back on and used the Aperion memory location. And they sound great too.
So my question is this: Is the MCACC settings a result of the efficiency/in-efficiency of the speakers? I mean, I' assuming the Aperions were set so much higher because they needed more "power" to achieve the same level at the MCACC microphone. Should I listen to the Axioms/Aperions at the same levels? Or just where I like the sound?
Thanks
