Speaker set-up.

[admin_exported]

Hi Guys,

Can anyone tell me the correct configuration/calibration for a 5.1 speaker set-up as i'm having difficulty achieving the best audio levels to maximise a true surround sound effect. I'm either getting too much from the fronts or the rears are overpowering the fronts which is no good either, any help would be greatly appreciated.

My AV equipment consists of Pioneer KRP500A,Onkyo 905,Sky HD,Sony BDP-S5000ES and a set of Tannoy F1 Customs in a 16x12 room.

Without doubt, your best bet is to get yourself a mini SPL meter and follow Mr E's advice as laid out here.
