just as an example... i spend a lot of time with equipment... different one... and as far as sources go... i think that i have heared that ideea that if something is louder brain gets it better... but...
Yes, playing something a bit louder not only sounds a bit louder, but because of psychoacoustics, the perceived quality is higher. This was sometimes used by unscrupulous audio sales people. They would make sure to play the system they wanted to sell slightly louder than the one they didn't,
i cannot go above a certain level with entry level equipment without distortion... everything cheap produces diistortion on high volumes of listening... expensive products have no distortion at loud listening levels... this is why... i think that there are a pleathora of differences being heared... i cannot hear cheap things loud. without clipping..
Not sure exactly what you mean by "cheap," but yeah, if you're wanting to keep costs down, you're going to have to cut some corners somewhere.
