Looks like Elizabeth may have the only SPL meter :-) facts are pesky
just ran thru Live in Paris and a fantastic for me anyway level was 86.2 dB peak ( A weighted)
no wine, not dark yet, spouse away, Labrador faking asleep....
with the advent of digital and the analysis toys ... much music pretty limited in dynamic range, 30-35 dB common
knowing what your noise floor is in your room can be helpful in eliminating sources of ambient noise....
then there is....
some of the ticks and pops pops between songs , the Krall 45 rpm disc has some 40 dB ticks.... so in real terms signal to noise is approx 46 dB
