I like to listen loud after a few beers, so not a lot. I measured 105-108 on the scale. I would like it louder, but that's about as loud as it goes. It's still clean at that volume. NAD and Performa speakers.
How much is "LOUD" still a reference point for some?
Do you feel that with speakers things are about the same as they were in the 1970s? In the early days of Magnepan, Advent, Dahlquist and more, much of the competition was in speakers that sounded like a Jukebox and played LOUD. Has this changed or is "LOUD" still the point of reference for many?
