I was just curious why with my old speakers, (Infinity) my listening level seemed to be -20 db to -30 db and with the axioms seems I;m now listening more in the -15 to 20 - db range
Doesn't matter, I was just curious about it

Thanks

Jeff

Some speakers are more sensitive than others. I'm guessing your Infinities were very sensitive.

Hate to be the total speaker newb that I am but what do you mean by more sensitive

Thanks

It means that some speakers require more or less power than others to achieve the same output volume.

I was resisting writing that it means the speakers cry easily...particularly every 28 days.

Oh I love that!, mine doesns't fall into that fold but, I've been there, she is constant and not a pain.
