They think they are making it sound impressive and exciting. It's classic American one-upmanship at its finest - quantity is so often prized higher than quality.
Volume and Bass levels at LA HE Show
This was the first show I've attended and I was surprised to find that SPL levels were cranked up in so many rooms and that bass was so often overblown. While the Vandy 5a wasn't up yet (I was in and out early Friday) even the room equalized Quatro sounded bass heavy to me. I was wondering:
A) If my impressions were generally shared
and
B) If so, why don't the demos ease back on the volume knob?
BTW - I was pretty close to buying a pair of Quatro Woods and am now reconsidering,
