Default Re: Non-linearity of the human ear

True in the natural world but when you listen at home to a reproduction of the sound you may play it louder or quieter than the 'natural' level and your ears will not hear the 'natural' sound because of the level changes. So I prefer the addition of a loudness control. It should be variable as the input level from a CD player or other item connected to your system may give different signal levels and the effect of the loudness control will vary with the setting of the volume control.
