Not sure what to make of it. Why are you getting 87db at 1000 Hz when your reference is 80 db at 1000 Hz?
I suggest getting REW5 (free!) and ideally buying a calibrated USB microphone (about $50-75) to get a better idea of what's going on with your speakers and your room. I use an old analog RS sound level meter to "calibrate" the SPL readings on the REW5 using the built in pink noise generator as the source. I find the iphone app "SLA lite" or Keuwlsoft "SPL Meter" on Android work just as well.
