Recently purchased the alpha dogg and so far been impressed with it.Volume is without question EEExtreme.clarity I think is very good untill you pass 65 % of the volume control,at this level some of the sounds arent of the same quality.I can not imagine anyoone needing more.As far as the echo is concerned I have three, thought they needed more volume so I installed speakerjacks -more volume. the smaller mimc call has the speakerjack,i installed,and does have more volume.flextone cons...you get wat you pay for cant add sounds to change the game p.s.dont use the coyote sounds Hope this helps Alpha dogg set 65 is louder than Echo wide open with additional speaker
