Just got back from radioshack...with an analog spl meter =)
Didnt figure it was worth an extra $15 for using it so infrequently and for something like this, so I skipped on the digital.
I verified that all the speaker distances were correct on the receiver and the polarity is correct on all speakers. I set everything up w/ the pink noise on the receiver. Is it worth the time to get my video essentials DVD out and set it up via that?
A couple more hours, and it will be time for the two towers!
...I hope it sounds $35 better!
