Been using REW for a month and am fairly comfortable with the basics. NOT all the graphs:) I have many questions, but I'll start with this one...

As the title indicates, my subs are measuring at a lower volume with my center channel than with my mains. Is this normal? Both the center and mains were at 75 dbs before I measured.

Thanks
 
If you were measuring both mains (i.e. putting a signal on L+R) then the sub would have got redirected bass from 2 channels rather than one.
