I wish they could just implement a button on all amps/recievers, so that people can choose themself if they want loud and flat sound instead of full dynamic range.
Yeah actually, I want such a button for opposite reasons, end up with too much dynamic range on DVDs for instance, so I have to turn the volume way up to hear what's happening in the quiet scenes, over the top of my mother in law rattling pans in the kitchen, or the cats crashing around, or neighbours mowing the lawn or whatever else, then all of a sudden there's an action scene and I'm blowing the windows and my eardrums out.
I'd appreciate dynamic range if I had a nice padded cell 1000ft underground in the middle of nowhere.
I guess CDs are made for people listening with headphones in noisy environments where you need a fairly constant volume level.
