Garmt,

It shouldn't be necessary to recalibrate your loudspeaker output levels for DTS once you've calibrated for Dolby Digital, the levels of each (given correct software) are identical and the all-important volume relationship between channels is identical also.

There is just one thing to bear in mind… DTS Music material uses an LFE level (where applicable) 10dB higher than DTS movie material, therefore if you play any DTS music discs the LFE should be reduced by 10dB. Some processors have modes which automatically compensate.

Stuart.
