Bear with me on this as its a bit hard to explain.
With a P.I. the smaller/weaker signal is often the good one and loud 'good' response is iron or other rubbish. We attempt to discriminate by the width of the audio response not the volume as most rings/coins are small.
My point is if you could switch in a revised 'signal booster' with a tight window so that all targets were booster or reduced in volume so that the audio was the same this would reduce the distraction of volume and allow full attention to be paid to the width of the target.
The old problem of a small coin at one inch sounding the same as a coke can at two feet remains but would taking the audio 'blast' out help with identifying the rubbish...it would certainly make it a little easier on the ears.
Shoot me down in flames please. My only excuse is to many hours trudging the wet sand.
