Now, *I* am the one who is officially confused!
Whenever you have a chance, could you confirm that your receiver display looks exactly like the diagram on page 27 of the user manual (yes, I downloaded the 43TX manual to solve this mystery!), and that the volume-level display actually go from -80 (not -90 sorry) to +12? -- you can check this with the source turned off.
Also, with the volume set at your "usual" comfortable level, could you tell me the actual average SPL levels of tyical movie dialogs (use C curve)? Select a scene where nothing much else is going on except for the dialogs. Just measure it uning your RS meter at the listening position. Incidentally, you should always use the RS meter with its mic pointing straight up toward the ceiling.
