Proper use volume control?

1) To move the soundstage forward or back to where it should be or where you like it.

2) To get fuller details from PPP to all the way to FFF.

3) To get the room playing as loud as you imagine/remember in a concert hall/stadium setting.

4) To "fill the room" without creating unwanted wall and other reverberations/resounances.

5) Any other reasons.

Some systems don't come to life until you wick up the big knob. I like lively speakers, and a system that sounds good at low or high levels. Sometimes sheer output compensates for what is missing in overall sound quality.
There are lots of uses for the volume control, including pissing off the neighbors.
