if it ain't hair-shaking loud, it ain't fun enough.
Dear mark
cmon
quality my friend could also come with hair-shakes,thats how they do it at....well lets not go there ,we r in van so we have what we have..but i think the quality of the system needs to improve in order to hear the full spectrum as much as possible
its more like terrible LOUD noise than anything else

sound quality is pretty much a matter of opinion only. as long as its not distorting, its really hard to judge what sounds good and what doesn't because everyone's ears are different and hear things differently. sound quality simply isn't something you can measure.
i can't quite remember what armin's sound setup was like but i don't remember having much trouble with it other than the fact that when i got near the speakers my ear drums would bump to the beat.
at pvd, the stereo sounded awesome once you found the sweet spot. (back of dance floor in the center)
the sound at armin was horrible!
way too loud. i understand people liking their music loud, but there's a point past which the loudness isnt noticible but makes a huge difference on the health of your ears. its also more difficult to measure the quality of the sound when its loud, even tho it is rather a subjective measurement.
personally, i really dont see the point in having the level of music up as much as possible as some people like it. it ruins your hearing, you cant have a conversation and it gives you a pretty nast headache too sometimes.

lots of distortion mark,few months back at TE..music was as loud as hell, what u call hair-shaking i guess...but crisp and clear, so was the system in TO @ THE DOCKS.I think venue owners and promoters just dont care and respect the croud and the art of sound..we could be going to plush for another 5 years....they would still be using the same system
What makes most venues in europe and the states amazing..is the clear and crisp sound..even when crancked up like crazeeeee

Haven't looked up at the ceiling since it was The Rage, but I remember they had a giant UFO up there...

I wonder how secure that big shiny discoball is .. can't imagine if the supports started cracking
Just bring your own laser pointer in and wave it around the ball

EXACTLY! The best spot in Plush, where you are sure to always find me, is close to the back/center of the dancefloor. Yes, sometimes it's crowded with alot of people traffic, but it's worth it.
Lasers, I always thought something was missing from Plush, and that's it! Lasers are freakin cool! It adds so much to a party and the music, especially with trance.
For anyone who has partied in Toronto, The Guvernment has the best laser show I've ever seen. Saw Armin once and they had this amazing laser show that totally captured me as much as the music did

Tiesto @ The Docks in Toronto was insane, my avatar is from that show and the system was pumping but still had everything else to go with it. but back to the lasers there they had a setup that added to the music and made it feel like a better atmoshpere, at plush theres just open space. thanks for all the comments its neat to see all the perspectives on this topic

Your avatar is from Tiesto at The Docks? Which time? Was it a Wintergalactic, or another time?
But you're right, it really does fill in space and makes it feel more of an intimate vibe.
Not to mention that you'd see alot more hands in the air
Very true
