Setup is Beovision 11 and 2x Beolab 9.When I watch a movie I use film/moviemode and soundmode is also film/movie. Speaker role BV11 is centre front 2x.Beolab 9 is front left and front right.
Is it normal in this setup that I can hear speech/voices loud and clear through the Beolabs 9?Even when a person is in the middle of the screen?
For my liking I can hear them too loud over the Beolabs! !Is there a setup to get this fixed or not? I thought the BV11 would concentrate more on speech and the Beolabs 9 the bass and other sound. I hope there is a setup for this but there are so much settings that I do not know what to do now.
Thanks for any reply.

Adaptive, Drama , Speech... etc... try different ones to see which suit your listening preferences. Thanks for any reply.

I have the same setup as you. I've got a BV11-55 and 2 BL9's I was having the issue of the center channel (voices mostly) being too soft compared to the BL9s L and R channel. There are many ways to adjust these settings but the route I chose was to adjust the sound settings for each channel by tweaking the dB in the menu options under, sound > adjustment. I made the center channel slightly louder than default.
I have to say though, that the sound mix for television and movies varies from channel to channel and from movie to movie, so there's no perfect setup.
Thank you guys for the info. All makes sense to me and after my 9 days holiday in Portugal I will try the suggestions you made. I will be back. Cheers.
Sorry, double.
marcengels:Sorry, double.
Michael:Im Sure you Will find a good solution. I too have bl9 (and avant 55). So almost the same setup. But the avant has a microphone that can measure the volume. I currently have my BL9s at -3,5dB and my tv at -5,5dB.
Aussie Michael:Hi Michael Why do you have them set as minus? I have mine set as positive.
Why do you have them set as minus? I have mine set as positive.
I'm curious as well, I have mine set slightly positive as well.
Michael:I was curious about that too. I believe my microphone did that. I'm not sure. Maybe Geoff could help us out. :)
