KABOOM!!!

[EddNog]

Was playing this at reference volume today on my system (preamp at 0.00dB):


Got reasonable levels measured at the main listening position (results recorded for the full track):


So about 75dB average and 89dB peak when the canons are firing at my main listening position about 10 feet away. The thing that totally caught me off guard was watching the curtains behind my left speaker jump every time the canons were fired, due to the movement of the air from that speaker’s two rear ports!



Anyone else get interesting physical room interactions with their sound system?

Come to think of it, don't know where they went at that time.

My land line phone is set to light up only when it‘s being picked up. If I run my system a little harder it‘ll be fully lit most of the time.
