The simple answer to this question is that they're all supposed to be the same.
However, the volume has to be calibrated with a test tone (which is commonly a white noise signal). This test tone is built into most receivers. It also comes on calibration disks (such as the Avia disk). If you don't have access to a sound level meter, you can judge the volume of each speaker by ear. However, the the most accurate calibration, use a sound level meter and the test tone from a disk (like Avia) to set the volumes of each speaker to the same level.
