Limiting Max volume. And impact on dynamics

Hallo all.

A recent near (speaker) death experience causes by fat fingers and the volume slider in the HEOS app.Made me fiddle around with the Max Volume setting on my Marantz M1.

I tried limiting it to 50%, the slider still goes from 0-100%. But the sound level that was 15 is now 30. 20 before is now 40 and so on.

Everything should be great, but I can't help think that is has taken a bit of the dynamic out of the music.

And now my question. Are my ears playing a trick on me. Or does it sound plausible that limiting Max volume can effect sound bedside volume ?

Have a nice day

There's no theory supporting the hypothesis. It's 99.99% likely to be an auditory hallucination.
