Tre I also use speakers that are sensitive. They have a rating of 95.6dB. These are the Dayton PS220-8, but mine have highly treated cones. These in turn are loaded in Sachiko double-back-loaded horns. So I don't know if that raises their overall sensitivity rating or not. But for the sake of this discussion, let's assume they're 95db, ok? I use these with a 40W/ch, 845-based, SET amp/integrated amp. Now I can play Symphony music and or Progressive Rock music at levels that are so loud, you literally have to leave the room! You don't leave because of distortion, but rather due to the sheer volume of the music being played.

When I play music this loudly ---{ which isn't very often }--- if I walk through the kitchen ---{ which is just to the left of the audio system }--- and I sit in the dining room at the table. I'm now about 25'+ from the system and at this location the music is crystal clear and just incredible to listen to. I simply couldn't imagine trying to attempt to listen to the music at my "normal" location in the audio room when played at these volumes. I think anyone who would is either hearing impaired or crazy...

I'm listening to Afterdark by Halie Loren
