Pls bare with me being stupid, I'm new to this kind.
I've recently bought a pair of susvara and I'm kinda confused about whether my amp can power it enough or not.
So basically I can get the amount of wattage by multiplying the effiency of susvara and the power amp provides on that impedance, right? Is this not source-related? To elaborate, my go-to genre is classical, which needs higher volume(or gain) in general. So the amount of power needed to achieve 85dBSPL on classical music is identical to that of normal music(which has more compressed dynamic range)? Then why do I have to turn up the volume to reach that level of loudness?
Pls help me about this matter. I am currently using chord qutest(3v, rca)with smsl sp400. So it's not typical rca output voltage but definitely less than that of xlr. I'm clueless rn if my amp can handle this can(especially this amp does not make any palpable difference between each gain stage, and the measured power is different to the marketing material)
Thanks in advance!
