If you were responding to my comment, I can certainly play the speakers louder than 78-80 DB. My speakers only need 1 watt for a 92 DB SPL. I just find the sound satisfying at that 78-80 DB SPL. I probably listen at a similar volume through my headphones. My problem is no one wants the speakers on .... at any volume .... hence the reason I moved to headphones.

As I say, I do enjoy the effect my speaker set up offers, but it has its limitations and thats where the versatility between both systems is a great cost effective compromise. However, I still belive much bigger bucks needs to be spent for realistic speaker listening with the same level of resolution at real live event believable listening dbs levels! |
