Using a YBA YA201 for this setup. Still have the Prologue 2 in the actual listening room on other speakers. This is in the living room and really seems to be coming from particular recordings. CD only coming from a modified Adcom gda 600 dac. I listen to all kinds of music but mainly jazz and folk rock. Room is rougly 15x25 with a large opening on one end that goes into kitchen/dining area.
paranoid listener, bad recordings
I tend to listen apprehensively for some reason not understanding how durable speakers are at my listening level. So, I hear distortion from time to time coming out of my speakers and freak out thinking i have damaged them. But, I am beginning to think it is on the recordings.
Right now i have a pair of gallo 3.1's in my den that i am wrestling with room position (see other post) because of limited options. I put on some joni mitchell or typically pop recordings, sometimes older jazz, and will hear the distortion. I listen around 75-85db levels.
Am I paranoid, is the distortion in the recordings and should it sound like this on occasion? Is that too loud?
