What decibel level do you listen at? What is ideal?


I’ve noticed that my avg. dB level is in the upper 70’s to low 80’s.  Which leads me to what level do you listen at and what level do you find ideal?

Thank you, @jrareform - I was wondering about that, too. Somebody else on the thread mentioned a good sound level meter app; I might try that one and/or some others.

I generally listen to my system an hour a day, based on when and who I want to listen to. The amp I am currently using from my rotation is so beyond what is needed to get the job done, but the cleanliness and headroom screams out to me "turn it up"...And YES, there IS a specific spl were you get to that "magical point" of the experience. +100 db peaksangel

@jonwolfpell I agree with "Can't You Hear Me Knocking". Have you ever listened to "A Tribute To Jack Johnson" by Miles Davis. 

During video concerts, 113-115 db. Just like a REAL concert.... During movies, no idea, but its -18 to -20 on the volume of the Lyngdorf. The concerts are -2 to 2 above...
