gonk, the reason I used the lower level at setup was due to the thread: "anyone feel the auto calibration tone may damage the LFM1?" on this forum. I have a four 15" driver IB driven with a 2400 Watt amp and I did not want to run the risk of bottoming my drivers. Even though I turned the sub down, the output was loud and the auto setup reported a -1dB setting. But in actual use there was very low sub output level and that is why I turned it back up.

Also, after auto setup, the fronts were 0db the center was +1 dB and all the surrounds were zero dB. I got out my RS meter and ran through the test tone manually and got fronts 0dB center +6dB and surrounds +9dB.

Not sure what is up, but the auto setup did not seem to work well in my case. Or does the auto setup take something else into account that the RS meter does not?

Thanks
