I crank! I'm 65 still listening to Punk and hard rock! My neighbors complain and we have acres between our houses! One night a friend who is a musician couldn't believe how good it sounded! He said I think someone is knocking on the door? I opened the door and my neighbor was telling me my music was 2 loud/I told him I couldn't hear him and shut the door! The cops were the next knock! Ha Ha! My set-u JBL Studio masters I bought new in the 70's/Tigris tube amp and a Primaluna Tube Cd player with a tube clock! God rid of my krell and went back to my old gear! Happy Camper!
How loud are you typically listening?
Typically 75 to 80dB. Really loud is 90dB and I'm never over, and I mean never, 95dB. I'm using a professional SPL meter, C weighted, slow response. Just curious.
