I usually listen to music at low levels (SPL) and miss the equalization that a Loudness control provides. Unfortunately, any alteration of the sound is frowned on by the audiophile community, despite the need defined by the Fletcher-Munson curves.
Loudness - Why has the industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer?
I listen to music at all times of the day and night (solid sleep eludes me the older I get). My favorite times are when the family is gone and I can select the listening level, mostly moderate to higher volumes. But the simply fact is I find myself listen at lower levels much more often then my preferred listening mode.
Piggybacking on a discussion regarding low level listening here on Audiogon, I'm posing the question: Why has the majority of industry stopped producing amplifiers with this feature any longer?
I look forward to your input
