For the last several years, I have adjusted the volume level down. Most of my listening now is at a more comfortable, maybe 55-60 db. For me is kind of a sweet spot - loud enough to be dynamic and for the highs to come out, but low enough to keep from hammering my poor old ears and head. I do need a sub to augment the low end - adjusted to interface well at that level, but do have to manually adjust the bass level if I change the volume much either way. Seems like mijostyn has the ideal system for that.
My Maggie 1.7s are not real efficient (rated at 86 db.) but still sound incredibly good, as well as dynamic, even at low volume levels, driven with a 100W Rogue, integrated tub amp....Jim
