Is the volume adequate for a fairly large home (i.e. be able to hear the chime while upstairs)?

I doubt if this can be used in a large home. The sound from this chime is not very very loud but it's good enlightened for me. I live in a city and it's a small home. It's good enough for me. I've not investigated if there is a volume control.

We have a two floor house and it would be tough to hear it if I was upstairs on the opposite end of the house. But otherwise it has proven adequate

Will probably be fine. This one is quiet but if you are directly over the other bedroom they may hear some noise bit probably no more than you walking on the floors?

Yes! It is very loud. It is also very sturdy, well made. You should be able to hear it all over the house. You can also pull the clapper up or down for more or less volume and sensitivity.

You could, but a stereo output would be more effective maybe even into a normal home hi if set up , just watch your volume levels Cheers

Depends on where it is used. In the garage it isn't bad, but in a bedroom it will seem louder. Hope this helps.

You can purchase it. It's loud enough to hear from another room and even downstairs in my home - a little muffled because i keep my bedroom door close. But if my father who needs to wear a hearing aid complains about the volume, then you're fine.

There are three volume settings and all are pretty loud. It's going to depend on a few things whether or not you would be able to hear the ring - how large your house is, if there are multiple floors, the acoustics of your home, what tones you hear best, etc. The good news is there are many rings to choose from, so you can find one that will perk your ears up. Our house is around 1900 square feet, single story, and on the lowest volume setting (and while the house is quiet) I can softly hear the ring at the opposite end of the house. The receiver is a portable size and light, so if needed, it's easy to move around to different areas of the house throughout the day. There are three volume settings and all are pretty loud.

I Would Say So. I Have It Set Up In My Living Room. If I Crank It Up I Can Easily Hear It Through Out My House Which Is 1300Sqft. Just Get A Good Set Of Speakers.

oh yes the volume is more than sufficient. the best feature on this is the sound, more than you'll need.

its loud enough to play in a house with a couple of people. its not loud or clear enough for large settings. an intimate setting with a few people is more than sufficient. I use it on my boat and to workout. I walk around my house and my garage with it. its range is limited so the phone cant be far. I get about 4-5 hours out of mine.

I would say if you are listening in a bedroom or study area and not trying to crank the volume, you should be fine. I use mine with multiple speakes in my study and get a full and dynamic sound out of floor speakers at pretty decent volume levels

It depends on people using it. It is quite enough for me. You can lower the noise by setting the heat under "Hi"

It is not ideal but the sound quality is acceptable. In fact, that is where I have placed my unit. The biggest challenge (in addition to sound quality) with a high placement is turning the unit on and off.

It is only loud if you play a higher pitch chime sound but not any louder than most other doorbells. If want to play audio or music it will not resolve your issue.

I live in a cottage that's a little over 1100 square feet. My hearing is pretty good, and I can hear the beep from the bedroom, which is on one end, when it's in the kitchen, which is on the other end.

not loud, I don't think it would be heard by a neighbor, unless one was below your unit, there might be some detected through the floor to their ceiling.

I live in a double wide,bricked up to conform as a house. That doorbell will work good. The volume control is so good, that you can stick it in one side of the house, and when it rings you can hear it in the the other side. the wife yells at me to turn the volume down. It works real good.
