Interesting ... I happen to prefer average SPL in the 75-80dBA range with the subwoofer a few dB louder

I also sit only four feet from my speakers when I'm listening from the sweet spot.

My EPOS ES11 speakers are too small for an average SPL of 85dBA, IMHO, even when using a 24dB/octave 70Hz. high pass filter to keep most of the bass away from them.

The preferred SPL and distance from the speakers are very important factors when choosing components.

Much more important than room size (except for the fact that larger rooms tend to sound better than smaller rooms, and a better sounding room would justify buying more expensive audio equipment).
