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.

That’s an open ended question.

How loud do I play what? A Bach violin sonata, or God Save The Queen by the Sex Pistols, or somewhere in between, say Joni Mitchell’s Song for the Seagulls?

I would say that it ranges from 55 to 90, more or less.

And if your system doesn’t sound alive until you crank it up, something is wrong. The best systems - like a lover - whisper into your ear convincingly.
