Hi Experts,
I have a question regarding speaker sensitivity and its impact in home theatre setup…I have 9.1 setup with pioneer AVR rated at 130watts 2 channel driven driving
LR - Qacoustics 3050i - 91db sensitivity
Centre - Qacoustics 3090i - 88db sensitivity
FH - Focal Bird - 89db sensitivity
Ceiling - klipsch - 88db sensitivity
SB - Qacoustics 7000 - 85db sensitivity
My surround back speakers are quite low in sensitivity and when I calibrate the SPL level of all speakers I have to push the SB speakers to +9 +12 db to make them match with my fronts….Is it ok to do so?? Or shall I replace them with the 89sensitivity speakers (I have extra pair of focal birds lying idle)….I wanna know is it causing my amp to distort?? I am not using any sub…And I listen music between -20db to -10db…Room size is also small…Attached the pics of the setup
