Ok, some would say mid 80's is lower than a symphony close up. What are your peaks?
My system doesnt sweat but i know its limits via an oscilloscope on my equipment rack. It lets me see how close I get to clipping on various music.
Would you like to share what you have put together along with some important numbers like speaker SPL/watt, Amp power, Listening distance, anything else?
Lifelike SPL for me is that what one might hear at a similar live performance in the good seats, not too close but not too far away.
I want my gear to be able to handle it all including perhaps sitting close to the percussion at the symphony or in small club proximity to a rock band. I want to be able to hear it all. I might not be able to in reality but if I can be convinced its very close in my own unique room then that is good enough.
At the same time I want to preserve my sense of hearing so most of the time I would strive to avoid SPLs higher than the mid 80s or so. But I want my system to do it all and never break a sweat no matter what I may ask of it at any given time. That was a key design goal in putting together the setup I’ve had now for several
