Why do they always play so loud in hifi showrooms?


Does not this bother anyone else?

How come, at shows, like the CES or any other, the demo is needed to be ear-busting loud? I know I´m gather´em all up in one ugly soup - but never the less... It´s like the dude in head of the demo likes to hear his amps on the verge of clipping, the speakers screaming out the music. Sharp, ugly sounds trying to kill your ears. I´ve studied people trying to avoid the music/noice - others asking for a decrease of volume - people leaving the showroom solely because of the volumes intensety.

I have not been to many demos that was played at normal volume.

I usually listen to the speakers when the demo is over and they´re just playing at normal volume.

1. They play it so loud to get your attention coming to the room !

2. Also, they don't let the other rooms sound louder.
