It's amazing - my speakers are not stupidly insensitive (88dB at 2.83V/m) but I can barely hear them at -40dB setting on the Devialet! I do also think mine sounds fairly poor at low volumes too. Typical volume for me is around -20 to -10dB for rock and perhaps -10 to +5 for classical. And that's not terribly loud on my ears by any means. There does seem to be a bit of a threshold below which it breaks down. Could well be related to my ear quality and Fletcher-Munson curve.
