In Reply to: Need Good Definition with Low Db levels!! posted by KarlGranat on May 8, 2006 at 02:43:28:
A class A single ended amplifier will always sound better at low volume levels compared to its push pull cousin. In fact, it is perfect for low to medium listening levels with a lot of speakers to choose from. I would start by learning about directly heated class A single ended amplifiers and simple 2 way speakers. There's alot to cover (and you didn't mention your budget) so head on over to the SET forum for starters.
The speakers do not have to be crazy efficient as your goal is low sound pressure levels with excellent definition. Mine are only 94dB/1W/1m and I have 8 watts per side. They play louder than I care to hear and sound very good at all volume levels. There's so much to choose from, take your time and enjoy the learning process.I would also like to reccommend something else. Start wearing ear plugs during the day when its possible. For example; If you have a noisy car (any car) and a long commute, put the plugs in. You can still hear everything that's going on around you. You will climatize after a few minutes. Going to vaccuum the floor? Put the plugs in. Mow the lawn? You get the idea. This is good advice for all of us and maybe it will deter any further hearing loss you are experiencing.
Best of luck with your situation.
