Does loudness play a part in your appreciation?


I wish it weren’t so but listening at high volume (around 70 decibels) tends to make me get more involved in the music.

How about you?

I tend to roll in the 65-75db in my small room and 75db can be quite loud but it sure does sound good.

Low volume is for elevator music. 75 to 80 db hits the spot and is still easy on the ears.

Well I am a bit weirded out as I just a few minutes ago started a thread called "Listening Levels & Musical Styles" in this very sub forum...I did a search to see if there were any similar threads but didn’t see yours..Great minds thinking alike I guess...

It's all good enjoy it all no matter what the volumn.osha has the standard of 80 db for 8 hour exposure above that prolonged can cause hearing problems. I ill turn it up > 100 db but only a song or two. Have fun enjoy life cuz sometimes it's too short.

I’m very protective of my hearing, so only very limited rare occasions large volume is used.
