Maximum system volume

I have a doubt that many will have it too, what is the volume limit of the speakers?

How to know so as not to break them?

I have the 1723 series in the whole set powered by ATI from 200w per channel to 8ohm, supposedly the Towers support 500w and I will be applying 300w.

I have tried to raise the volume and I have come to measure 115dbs at 3.60m there is no distortion and the room supports it well without blurring the sound.

I’m afraid to turn up the volume more but it feels like I have more margin, what is your experience?

This is an amazing problem to have!

I only pusher mine to 95ish dB, and it was pretty loud.

I’m sorry to say that if at 95dbs you find it noisy, I suspect that you will not have complete control in the room. I can increase the sound as much as I want without it affecting or being annoying.

@Ramon.

not noisy, just loud and beautifully sounding.

regarding the room, definitely not in full control of it. But we’re renting so nothing I can do about it.

cheers!

Of course if you are renting you are not going to spend money on treatment, if you have the opportunity listen to the Arendal in a treated room and you will see the brutal difference.
