Thanks to all so far,
Still playing around trying to get 2 D6000's (not DSP), 500 CD player, 565 processor, DSP5000C and a Velo DD-18 just all working at any volume. All I can get so far is the 3 speakers just working with the CD alone. I'm getting older and my brain is not keeping up with Meridian

As for the "something wrong" with the volume issue, I have a big high ceiling room and this is my 3rd set clipping out over 70dB . One thing is that even though the speakers read 70, my Radio Shack meter registers 88-90. In 2006, I actually had the talented Ken from Meridian Atlanta in my room and after checking everything and listening to a CD at 75 for 28 minutes, the speakers went into Protective Mode, his final verdict was "They are doing exactly what they were designed to do."
When I play my JM Labs Focal Utopia BEs, I blast them all day long with ZERO issues except possibly going deaf
