Yes, I have a pair of Beolab 9's, whose level I did raise every so slightly (posted my adjustment and opinions on the BL9's in another thread). I have not raised the levels of the BV11 inbuilt speakers (yet) as they sound just fine to my unrefined ears.

Not that you were asking, but I have set up three speaker groups:

Default "TV" only the inbuilt BV 11 speakers (for normal routine TV watching)

"Movie 3.0" BL9's as Front L/R, with BV11 as Center

"Music 2.0" BL9's as L/R with the BV11 speakers off

I don't have any rear speakers (yet).

pressure level meter on my iPhone.

I've been told that the only right way to do that is with a analog db meter not digital

Hi,

For my new 11-46 I have used a sound pressure level meter on my iPhone to get the dB levels on my listening position right. For the distances I have used my Bosch Laser distance measurer from the listening position.

For other adjustments I have used the THX tune-up app with my AppleTV.

I have created a 5.1 profile, a 2.1 profile and a TV only profile for night watching.

Cheers,

Frank

Thank you Frank! I did not think about visiting the App store for this. I calibrated the speaker levels using the app and it worked really well! I think I have an old RadioShack (RIP) analogue meter at my parents place, I will give it a go out of curiosity when I get the chance.
