How loud are you typically listening?

Looks like comfortably loud is about 74.  But, I usually have it around 67.  I'll sometimes turn it up for a song or two, but only to around 80...

And thank you spinal tap.

60db in the 13' x 13' room I use is plenty. that's about No4 on the dial. Any more than about 70db and you can feel the base through the sofa :^)

I have not used the Radioshack SPL meter for more than 10 years although I still have it somewhere in the house. The last I did the measurements, it was in the range of 65-75dB average, 80-95dB for brief periods when I felt like turning it up.

These days my listening habits have changed. I now listen at much lower volumes, and I can do this all day long. Typically 50-65dB with peaks hitting 75dB. Apart from getting older where loud music doesn’t quite excite me anymore, I partly attribute the lower level listening to my improved system as well. It now sounds crystal clear with all the details coming through even at low to moderate levels. In the past, I have to turn up the volume to hear the detail which either got lost in the background or wasn’t reproduced by the gear / speakers. The sound is usually slightly muffled or the clarity is not very good when the volume is low with the substandard gear.

Depends on what genre of music. Acoustic guitar 65 to 70. Jazz 70ish. Steely Dan 75 to 85. AC/DC 90+. 

I try to keep it under 80 db on average to avoid hearing loss.
