I need some technical insights into what is referred to as the 'volume sweet spot' for any system.
We often observe that a system sounds best only at a particular volume range. Below this, it not enjoyable (lower dynamics, lower perceived immersion) and above this the system falls apart (Nothing to enjoy here). Some systems need certain volume to 'come alive' etc. Sometimes it so happens that the system sweet spot does not suit the listener and the entire thing has to be redone.
What is the (technical) root cause of this phenomenon? Why should there be a volume range sweet spot at all? Can this be resolved without changing major components?
Is it the power amplifier failing to run the speakers properly beyond the range? Or is it inherent property of the driver etc?
Need some insights in this area. Hopefully I made my question clear.
