I too listen at lower levels, typically high 60 average, mid to high 70 peaks.
Have you spent much time listening at higher levels and do you feel your system blooms at 61.8dB average, 70 peaks?

I need to go a bit louder than my current level for everything to bloom, about what you mentioned, upper 60’s into lower mid 70’s

Depends on the music…

I started listening at lower levels between 30 and 40db if my cat is in the listening room and I was surprised how flushed out and how much bloom the system still exhibited. I normally listen between 70 and 80 db.

Usually 80dB peaks for me. If I am rocking out hard, 85dB peaks. That doesn’t happen very often.
My gear is engaging down low. That seems like a huge blessing to me.
I had custom fit IEMs once that didn’t come alive unless it was loud. Those didn’t stay in my collection more than a few months b4 I sold them. New owner had them reshelled.

That coulda been a screen grab off my phone. Same app, same typical levels.
