My room is VERY absorbtive, with panels all around, carpet and couch. I also remember that the rear volume was very low when calibrating, so I had to bring the rest of the volume down low to match them, so maybe my 92 is not as loud as everyone elses? However, it really is not that loud for Dolby Digital movies. A lot of music is too loud at 88, but to hear the dialogue in movies clearly, I have to turn it up to 92 and it gets normal, then the explosions are room shaking.
Do the Velodynes have digital inputs that would work with the 861's Meridian digital sub out card? I would like to not have to buy another set of analog cards. I also am considering putting a couple of Revel 15" in, but I'd prefer a smaller driver for faster and tighter bass.

Silence is overrated!
