How do I balance my speakers?

System is;

Sony DA555ES reciever

Mitsu DVD

KLF30 mains

C-7 center

KSF-S5 rears

PF15TL+ sub

I just bought the Video Essentials and a sound meter. I'm trying to calibrate my speakers but cannot get the rears to 75dB!

The center channel is set +6 dB to achieve 75dB, but the rears, even at +10dB can only achieve 70dB on the meter. Am I doing this right? I'm using the master volume control to set the mains reference level, then using the internal gain to adjust the other speakers to it.

If there were some way to "turn down" the mains, I think I could balance everything. Am I missing something here?
