Isn't bass inherently problematic at low volumes? Fletcher and Munson's experiments in the 1930s showed that people are relatively less sensitive to low and high frequencies at lower volumes. Hence the "loudness" button that used to be prevalent on hi-fi equipment. Dolby Volume includes a much more sophisticated DSP implementation of an equal loudness curve. TacT Audio implemented something similar about 10 years ago. An equal loudness curve always seemed like a good idea to me, and I wish it were more common in modern DSP systems, especially those with microphone measurement. Sonos has a "loudness" button, but presumably it's more like the 1970s-era bass/treble boost rather than something like Dolby Volume. Nevertheless, I sometimes engage it when listening at very low volumes.
Just moved to an apartment need speaker suggestions
my better half and I just moved into an apartment need speaker suggestions, current speakers are Magnepan 1.6qr with Rythmik f15hp subs x2, need something as engaging as the Maggies but able to play softly, will be driven by a Classe CAP 2100 integrated. thanks in advance.
