I completely understand your point. However, since we currently don't have a digital source as a reference, can't we at least exercise a bit of common sense and do the best with what we have?
We don't have a machine handy, so nobody can attest to MAME's current accuracy, and there's two of us that noticed and cared enough to come here and report it.
So let's say I could cite, say four or five OFFICIAL CD audio sources with MK1's music that sounded just like each other (which BTW, also matches the music in the recent MK Arcade Collection), and I could provide a combination of MAME volumes that made it match those sources, wouldn't it lend some credibility to my affirmation that that's the way it's supposed to sound and there's something not quite right with MAME's levels?
I mean, we're not talking about some audiophile level "I think this minute detail is somewhat different" thing. It's more like "why are all these loud banging sounds all over the place?".
Furthermore, changing those levels will affect other common sounds, like uppercuts, the fatality sound, and even the title screen fanfare, so those could also serve as reference to compare to other official sources (official videos, trailers, the Arcade Collection or whatever).
