Thanks for all the info! I should mention that as a total amatuer I have very little idea of what most of you are talking about. Clipping, dB's etc. are all sorta over my head. But the general point is that I should not worry, right? Thanks again!!
Why do I have to turn the volume level so high?
I just bought a Marantz 7200 A/V Receiver with psb Alpha speakers (just Front L&R for now). The indicated volume range on the unit is from -75dB to +15dB. In order for me to listen at a comfortable level I need to crank the thing to -15dB or so!!! I guess this would be equal to 7 or 8 on the 1-10 scale. Even if I bypass all of the digital effects and listen in true stereo only I still need about
-20dB. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? Thanks.
