Default Volume Level

Maybe I'm crazy, but it seems like my relative volume level is lower than it used to be. I have ML, and when I would turn it up to 40, that was about as loud as I would want it to go. Now, I seem to have it at 35-40 all the time. Is there someway to adjust this, that might have changed inadvertantly, or am I just losing my hearing?

I noticed the same thing - 40 was always about as loud as i'd want it to go. I later noticed that different CD's have different volume levels - some of my CD's are loud enough at 25 or 30. So to be absolutely sure of your observation, you need to consider which CD it was.

Another thing is the airconditioning - if the AC is blowing hard you will need more volume to compensate - you'll definately need more volume than you would at the same time of day in winter...

Strange. Maybe you should just have it checked at your next service. Want to make sure there are no proboems with your speakers or amp.
