In a room with wall-to-wall carpet, the carpet fibers can absorb sound waves, resulting in dampened sound. This requires the volume to be higher to compensate for the absorption of sound. In contrast, in a room with a wooden floor, sound waves can reflect off the hard surface, producing a louder effect with less volume needed.
