Topic: ADI-2 DAC with Genelec 8020D - speaker input sensitivity
Hi there,
I am using the ADI-2 DAC FS with a pair of Genelec 8020D active monitors connected with XLR cables. Auto Ref Level is set to on. I have not experimented with Loudness yet.
My Genelecs have an adjustable input sensitivity of -6, -3, 0, +2, +4 and +6 dB. I have left it at 0 dB for the time being. I noticed that the ADI-2 stays at -5dbU reference level at my listening volumes. I usually listen at low to moderate volume levels.
As an example: -70dBr is very low volume, and -50dBr is what I consider a normal listening level, and -30dBr is loud.
Should I bother with changing the input sensitivity on the Genelecs for an optimal setup?
