Is there a way to balance the sound when playing DVDs?

While watching DVDs played on a Philips home theater system, I have a problem with hearing the movies dialogue unless I turn it way up. But when music or sound effects such as gunshots or explosions begin I have to quickly turn it down or get blasted out of the room. This also occured when I used a PS2 routed through a home stereo. I have looked through the menu options to see if there is any real way to adjust the sound and I haven’t found any. Is this a common problem with a fix that I haven’t discovered yet? Help in this matter would be greatly appreciated and save me a a few lumps on the head from my wife when I accidently wake the baby because I didn’t get to the volume control fast enough.

You should be able to balance the speakers in the audio set up of your receiver.
Depending on your receiver and how old it is.
Some of the newer receivers will do a self analysis of your speaker set up and balance all of the speakers levels accordingly.
If it does not have this feature you still can do it manually, you will have to go to Radio Shack and buy a sound pressure level meter.
Then you will have to go into the audio set up for your surround sound receiver, it should play a pink noise through each of your speakers, using the level meter , set all the levels of each speaker until they all read the same level, then your speakers should be balanced.
