At 102 dB? Yoiks. We are talking about music degradation of

I take it then that your system at home never hits 102 dB. Good for
you, Howard.

Generally, 100 dB peaks are tops, and then only with action
movies. Never with music, even pop stuff. Ironically, this
means that I probably have four times the total system amp
power I need.
