you can boost the individual input levels in the setup menu. I did that after the mic calibration process prevented me from going louder than 65/80.

Hi Marc,

I am actually thinking about getting a sound level meter, I just have to find one somewhere. What do you use to test the sound, a specific CD or DVD or just use the test tone? And what volume level do you set the receiver to?

Transmico.

I bought a Radio Shack meter on Ebay for about $35 delivered. I use the Avia Home Theatre DVD and try to hit 80dB per speaker.

Other times I just use the built in mic utility. They're both produce good results.

My bad. I have the TX-SR606. I was under the mistaken impression Onkyo included mic calibration on their whole line.
