bugbitten,
To properly adjust the levels of all your new Axioms at least start by investing in an SPL meter at Radio Shack if you haven't done so already. It is a MUST for getting all your speakers balanced out so none of them are over powering one another but all at the same level. Most will also suggest that you buy either the AVIA or DVE (Digital Video Essentials) disc as sometimes the pink noise used for calibrating in most receivers vary slightly from the output of the same through the digital feed from your DVD player.
Regarding the volume setting: Since everyone's rooms are different sizes, shapes and contain a varying of contents there is really no way to say what a correct volume setting would be. This is where the SPL meter becomes your best friend. Once you calibrate all of your Axioms where they are all outputting the same volume then that part of a "correct volume" is established then all you have to do is use your master volume to play at whatever level your ears enjoy.
Welcome to the Axiom club and be prepared to smile even wider once you get your QS8's installed.
Regards,
Rick
