Hi guys I thought I'd try and set my speaker levels manually I have read that 75db is the 'sweet spot" however I was unable to get my front presence speakers to 75 66db was the highest I could get with the master volume at 0db. So I decided to set all my other speakers to 66db in order to matain balance. Is this the right thing to do I have set the centre speaker a little hot to get clarity on vocals. My system is
Yamaha rx-a6a
Monitor audio silver 50 7g front
Monitor audio radius 90 rear
Monitor audio radius 200 centre
Monitor audio mass satellite x4
Svs pb-1000 pro

That's why. That's crazy low, probably lowest I've ever seen


Sensitivity (1W@1M)​

80 dB
replace them with more efficient speakers.

To reach 90db (loud) you'll need 179W amplifier power per speaker
Compared to my main speakers, I only need 14.3W of power to achieve the same spl

Ultra-compact. Ultra-lifelike. The Monitor Audio Silver 50 7G gives you surprisingly clear, room-filling sound, redefining what a bookshelf speaker can be.

The MA website quotes 86db/w. No idea where you're getting 80 from.
 
It's the mass front height speakers that I can't get any higher than 66 they are 3.5m away for the main listening position and in the top corners of the living room
