What decibel level do you listen at? What is ideal?


I’ve noticed that my avg. dB level is in the upper 70’s to low 80’s.  Which leads me to what level do you listen at and what level do you find ideal?

Used a meter to test my main system.  Usually stays under 70.  Trying to save what’s left of my hearing. Wear ear plugs now at concerts. 

I prefer mid 90s (average) - lots of immersive energy and "you are there" presence, but not too much to be uncomfortable for a reasonable 1 - 2 hour session (with breaks). Don't listen daily, but really enjoy when I do. Never subjected my ears to loud concerts or guns (without ample protection), etc - doing fine so far. 

There is less chance I'm going to like the same things (gear and music) as say a 70dB listener lol.
