Hi all,
I consider myself a bit of hifi hobbyist. Had a decent set up for almost 20 years. Until recently I upgraded my whole system and now in process of educating myself to more technical side of things, thanks to you guys.
In my old set up I had MF E10 amp with BW DM601 speakers. E10 was rated @ 40 watts per channel and it was really loud, even when we had parties I never had to go past 11 o clock on the volume knob. There was no difference in terms of loudness when I upgraded the speakers to CM5.
However, with my current amp, which is evo50a rated @ 55 watts p/c @ 4 ohms running the same CM5s I found it atleast 30% less louder than the MF E10. Considering that the evo has 15 watts more p/c I would have thought it would be louder, not that it matters at all. Even with the smaller pmc 21s evo 50a is nowhere as near as loud as MF E10. Hence I found that the watts per c/h is irreverent to how loud a system can sound.
Your indepth elaboration on this matter will be appreciated.
Thanks for reading
