I've read the 'stereo review' magazine from 1970 to it's end. they say that to hear a difference in volume you have to triple the wattage to hear a 3 decibel increase. from 100 watts you need 300 watts. from 300 watts you need 900 watts. from 900 watts you need 2700 watts. to all out there , is this still true??
What does moving from a 150 watt amp to a 400 watt amp get you?
Hi all, I’m coming back to tap the knowledge of the forum again. I have a pair of revel ultima studio 2s that I very much enjoy. I’m currently running them with an Ayre V-5xe. I’ve seen others say that these speakers need to be driven by 400 Watts to get them to sound their best. I sort of understand the relationship between wattage and sound volume, but if I am not looking for “louder” what do I get with a more powerful amp? I don’t hear clipping. More current? But what does that do? Sorry for my ignorance!
