I stumbled across the following diagram:
It indicates that the dynamic range of a typical speaker is 75dB. Now I'm trying to decide if I need a 24-bit CD player that have dynamic ranges of 120+ db. However, I now wonder if headphones are capable of reproducing a dynamic range even close to the capabilities of SACDs. Anyone have data on the dynamic range of headphones? (When I have time, I'll do some searching myself and post any results I find...)
