Ever notice how some systems can be cranked up without ever sounding aggressive? That’s no accident.
In fact, it is rare.
A great system doesn’t just get louder—it effortlessly scales.
When you turn up the volume, or when the orchestra or group reach a musical crescendo, the sound should expand effortlessly, not clamp down or become grating. This comes down to a number of factors, including high headroom for amps and low distortion drivers with room to move.
A system struggling at higher levels will add compression, intermodulation distortion, and other nasties that make you reach for the volume knob in self-defense.
The best systems? They invite you to turn it up. And up. And up.
Because real music doesn’t get harsh—it just gets bigger.
