Re: How do I choose speakers: specifications

What is your budget and what sort of room (size, furnishings, floors etc)are
you looking to put the system in?
Probably looking at spending around $400/£217 for a pair of stereo speakers, so looking at something used.
Room about 15' x 15'. I sit about 7' away from speakers. I rent so I don't want to go too big (don't know what the next situation will be for size.) Floor is carpet. I have an office desk that I use for computer. a couch and reclyner, coffee table, and cabinet for the microwave. It's a basement suite and the living room connects into the dining room and the kitchen.


In Isco 3 link to Home Cinema Speakers it says:

A good home cinema room should be able to play at theatrical levels effortlessly. That would mean 105db at the listener's position from every speaker and 115db from the LFE channel.
Wouldn't that be loud? How much volume do I need for music?
