Soundhound,
Was visiting the forum the other day when you were talking to Willscary about calibrating his system by having the 950 at "0" and the main volume at "00", and use the volume pots on the power amps to get 75db. I had received my replacement Blue Dot the same day and had already calibrated my 950 at "00" and found it to be very loud. I than tried lowering the setting on the 950 to "-8" and calibrated again. That was it, finally, this is what I had hoped my first 950 would sound like.
But after reading your thoughts about using the power pots on the amp's to calibrate the speakers I said why not give it a try. A fellow gunslinger named Youngguns came over and got behind all that gear to set the Parasound amps. In a few minutes it was done. I think the sound, to my ears, is even better and well worth the little effort that it took. Again thanks, to you and others who use this forum to help solve some of the everyday problems that come up and drive some of us crazy.
