How loud do you listen at home? Do you ever use an SPL meter to check at your listening position?
And what about live concerts, ever check them with a smart-phone app, and what kind of #'s are you seeing at your seat?
I was playing with the SPL meter in Audio Tools (for an iPhone) this morning and was peaking around 98 or 99 db at about 8-9 feet (my normal listening position). I consider this quite loud, wouldn't normally listen that loud and wouldn't want it any louder.
I know some of you are heavy metal listeners, I'm wondering if you prefer your music extra loud?
