Default Speaker Volume?

Is the display on the screen right? That is, does that bar actually fill all the way across? I want to say I've never reached the halfway point in fear of blowing my speakers or my eardrums.

(I have the B&O speakers)

We've been waiting for you to come along, try it and tell the rest of us the result.......LOL
I have hearing aids and without them, I have never gone more than a third across. With them in, almost always about a quarter across and I like the radio loud. The B & O system is excellent.

So funny I was just thinking about this today. I just have the regular stereo, and I never go higher that about 1/4 or 1/3 and I like music pretty loud too. And I’m 46 so my hearing isn’t too bad yet.

It is a pretty accurate representation. With the B&O I couldn't turn it up to half volume because it sounded so bad. Now that I have replaced everything after the MMI with thousands of watts of quality electronic components and much better speakers I'm at max volume almost daily.

I love the B&O as well and have never gotten it past 50% as that's plenty loud. Well worth it.
