[QUOTE="Fred Allman, post: 105138, member: 5241"] Re: Improving perceived loudness when system is constrained Here is the cheapest solution: Overdrive the inputs and make sure everything is super distorted... then you can turn down the volume without most of them realizing that the levels are now lower. From my experience, people perceive distorted sound as louder, specially when their hearing is already damaged... It is surprising how few people can relate crystal clear program material @ 110dB to being louder than 90dB with a good dose of distortion. \m/ [/QUOTE]
