Do amps, subs, etc. get weaker?

[QUOTE="Saint211, post: 5426970, member: 564903"] You have probably just gotten so used to it that it does not seem to be as loud as it once once. Its actually fairly amazing.... most people could never hear a system, then hear 130 dbs and think its insanely loud. Then when you hear a louder then the 130 db system is no longer loud and the higher volume becomes the standard. I remember that even with myself. I heard some systems that I thought were SLAMMING when I was a kid. Now I realize they weren't as loud as I thought, but because of my experience with SPL at the time, they were the loudestr I had heard. And people also get used to their systems full-tilt sound or volume. Why do you think so many of us change equipment a lot. I know when I first got my setup I was like wow, cool, this is louder than my last one. But now, while still fairly loud, Im just getting so used to it. Its really funny because Im so used to it.... and a lot of the people on here with huge set-ups could sit in my car and not really be wow'ed but when I demo my car to Average Joe Customer they sit in it and are like "wow this is insane its blurring my vision" Ive thought about all this a few times [/QUOTE]
