Yes, I understand reference volume and SPL but just wanted to get a sense of your listening space at your -10 to -15dB listening levels.Myself, I frequently listen at -6dB to -0dB on both DD 5.1 and DTS 5.1 sources. My Mains are 8' away from me, the sub 10'. Rarely do I think the volume is too loud at -6dB. I have on occasion needed to lower volume to -9dB.
My room is 19' x 13' x 8-12' cathrdral ceiling with one large 4' wide door opening to a cavernous 2 story living room (itself >6000 cuft) and another door opening to the kitchen.bstan
