A DJ friend says it's always a good sign when the management asks you to turn it down. In other words, pump until they say stop.

Most of the DJ nights I go to I'd say the volume is just about where  it 
should be....loud enough that I can have that enjoyment I mentioned yesterday  of 
hearing music at volumes higher than I could ever play them at home...but  
without being ear-bleeding, and not distorted.
 
But that's for places where there's dancing...Certainly if it's a bar where  
there is no dance area, and all you can do is sit/stand and socialize, then 
the  music shouldn't be too loud that you can't talk to the person next to you  
without shouting. (I know at least one Brooklyn deejay who doesn't seem to get 
 that. :>)
