They are never turned higher than 1/6 volume any more, and that's with the volume in media player at 10% and system volume at roughly 1/3.
At full volume they are insanely loud, as in comparable to a PA system at a gig. I loved them as a teenager (got them when I was 16), and they were a blast during my time in uni halls. They're too powerful and too bassey for me now though (that's 2 10" subs on each), so when I have the money I'll look to replace them with something smaller and of higher quality.
Showing my age here.:lol:Bought a CD/DVD of The Beat at the US Festival the other week.The DVD shows the full sets from gigs in 82 and 83.The CD contains some songs from each gig.I can recommend it.
