What decibel level do you listen at? What is ideal?


I’ve noticed that my avg. dB level is in the upper 70’s to low 80’s.  Which leads me to what level do you listen at and what level do you find ideal?

Ghdprentice -are you telling me that a high quality solid state amp that can put out 300 watts / channel will sound better than a high quality 100 watt / channel amp when they’re only driving an 89 db sensitive speaker to level of 70 db’s & thus not even using a watt of power? I have my real doubts as does Nelson Pass & thus his believe that class A amps sound better when putting out lower wattage as do high quality low power amps ( his First watt line) w/ the right speakers at reasonable volumes. If you’re actually using 40 or 50 watts average & thus peaks of of a few hundred watts, then I would think the higher power would sound better.
