The problem with most surround sound set ups is that the user will play
the surround channels too loud. This certainly is the case with store
demos. I suppose the demonstrator simply wants the guest to be extremely
aware of the surround channels. However, what you want is for the
listener to NOT be aware of the surround channels.

Exactly my observation from visits around. Most always I can _hear_ the
center channel and wish they'd reduce it just a tad, not unlike the
approx 3dB you mentioned elsewhere.
Often it's even worse off with the rear speaker levels.
