It was in the early eighties or late seventies, a concert in Berlin at the local University, and there where Bands I forgot about, but they played through the usual PA system, not bad I suppose. But as all the Rock concerts back then I though "Its way too loud, even if I like it" My ears hurt... Then there came the headliner, a well known German rock band back then. They did not play through the PA, they had literally a wall of Marshalls behind them... Man what a difference! They where at least three times as loud as the bands before, but this time it wasn't too loud, it was just pure energy... Wouldn't work for any other type of music though...
