You have to start with it down, and then make it bang.

At loud volumes, your ears naturally compress sound, making it sound better. In addition, as I read in the acclaimed Mixing Audio: Concepts, Practice, and Tools by Roey Ishaki, Fletcher and Munson showed that at higher volumes, you'll be proportionately more sensitive to lows and highs (compared to mids), which will make it sound better. So when you lower the volume it will suck. Souljah Boy disagrees.
