[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 27313, member: 30"] Re: Thoughts about amplifiers at 3/4 volume. The whole idea is NOT that the amp has hiss. The idea is to reduce the hiss that the rest of the system is producing. That is why turning it down reduces the noise/hiss. You cannot make the system any louder-that is based on the amplifier power and the sensitivity of the loudspeaker. BUt you can reduce the system noise-yielding a greater dynamic range (by not having the noise be louder than the signal on quiet passages). This is not important in many cases-but is very important in others. [/QUOTE]
