Hi All, I recently bought my first 5.1ch system with Wharfedale Dx-2 5.1 speakers and Denon AVC X3700H AV receiver with LG C1 TV. As i am fairly new to home theatre system, I am having low volume issues in setting up my system correctly.
AV and TV are connected via 2.1 HDMI in both eARC ports and Fire tv stick attached in AV input- media player. I have done Audyssey calibration and will attach screenshots of levels and crossovers below. After spending longtime reading this forum, i adjusted wharfedale all speakers to 100hz and subwoofer at 120hz. I am only watching TV apps and fire tv stick currently and later input Nintendo switch. I live in top floor flat and listen at volume scale of 14-20 in Fire tv stick prime video and youtube. I had to manually increase all source levels and channel levels atleast 3-4db to listen at above volume scale however centre speaker volume is low. Situation gets worse when i watch a same music track or movie ex: Dunkirk in TV apps: Youtube and Prime video eventhough same settings are applied to TV audio. I have to bump another 15 units in volume scale to get same sound but still centre speaker dialogue is low. I have decent bass and dynamic compression at heavy helps but when compared to fire tv stick and LG tv app settings i always have to change volume to get same sound with not enough audible dialogue.
Am i watching in low volume scale? and should i keep Audyssey calibrated settings same and listen at 35-45 volume scale? Not sure what is wrong in my setup.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Many Thanks
