Note the following:

It is recommended to use a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) meter
to manually calibrate output levels. An SPL meter is a device
that measures the relative loudness of the speakers to ensure
accurate output level calibration. SPL meters are available at
Radio Shack (catalog no. 33-2050).

Output levels should be calibrated from the primary listening
position, placing the SPL meter at the approximate location of
the listener’s head during listening.
