Hi everybody,
If we back to the end of the eighties ,most of the tube preamp were fitted with phono stage .
My favorite preamp like Pv 8, Pv 9a from Conrad johnson were terrific in term of matters and dynamic....
The pot volume was rarely set over 9 o'clock in normal listening..
So' the definition of loundness means an increase of volume but imply a reduction of dynamic,
( increase of average power and decrease of
The final sound lost in matter in many case, the dynamic is the main criteria to save in live music...
It is just an "old school audiophile point of view" but the true is in between depending of listening habits...
