Why do we 'turn it up'?

I have a small collection of dacs , that I am slowly selling off. I have one really hi end DAC and when I use this the volume is totally different . As you pointed out it’s not loud and it’s not low. Even the lowest passages are heard so clearly. And the loudest are not that loud but just incredible detail. So as much as I want to disbelieve your statement it’s true as my own experience shows me . Very good observation. Thanks
