I have a bunch of easy questions for you guys
my equipment-hk 525 and 4 m22s
1 How much better will the video quality be going from non gold RCA video cables to gold RCA video cables(from dvd straight to tv)

2 I paid 38 bucks for my spl meter-is that too much?

3 My SPL meter has different ranges-60 to 120. which one do i use?
4 What volume should my reciever be at when using the SPL meter?

5 for hk 525 users- did you get a cd when you bought your receiver? The only 'test tone' i have is static.

6 I am having a hard time noticing a difference in bass output when changing the speaker settings from large to small. Is there a way to shut off bass to the m22s? I want to know how much bass output they have

7 when using the front 2 speakers in order to reach loud levels of listening i set the reciever at -35dbs. when using all 4 m22s i need to set the reciever to -15 dbs to recieve a simliar output. Is this normal? To me that seems like a big difference in output power
