How do you listen?


I listen to a lot of (classical) music. Most of the time I try to listen at concert hall volumes (really loud) so as to try and recreate the feeling I have  being in the hall.  But  recently I’ve discovered I can get satisfaction listening at moderate levels.  There is a certain relaxed quality to listening this way, and sometimes I think I hear more of what’s in the music.

Jim Smith, tip number x and observed long before i met him…every recording, indeed every hall and reverberant space ( read venue ) has it’s “ bloom point “, with and without people ( read audience ).….

carry on.
s to n of the room matters, but my recollection is we wrangled that one to the ground also….
In my house of stereo, 80db peak is as much volume as I need even for metal. Maghister is on to something. Volume needs to experience music fully are very room acoustics and system dependent.

This is ELEMENTARY acoustic....Thanks for your observation...

The volume of each set of frequencies vary ALSO with the pressures zones distribution of the room for an acoustician and do not vary only with linear distance and angular distance from the speakers.......

The general volume vary with his hands playing with the volume control of the gear only for a children...

Confusing the two is ridiculous...
