As a flat dweller, I am trying to train myself to listen at lower
levels. If you have a sound level meter, would you mind posting
the typical dB readings at which you listen? I would be interested
to compare with my own experience. I am currently at this moment
listening to the Red Hot Chili Peppers, with the sound level peaking
at around 80dB at the listening position; a considerable drop from
my more usual 90dB or so, but I am more quickly than expected getting
used to it.
