Hi Wayne,
Thanx for your informative post on dynamic range. I have read articlein stereophile & elsewhere too that talk about why HUGE amplifier power is needed for the 120DB peaks in the 87 db speakers that sell in the general hi fi market.
On reading these articels & other posts, i wondered why we would WANTDB peaks. I mean, at moderate listening levels (say around 90-95 DB) do we really have notes hitting 120DB? Or is this just for people who like to run their systems really really loud?
My khorns are 104 db at 1 watt, and i run them with a zen (around 2 watts) ...and i was wondering if i am missing something.
