TE - These go to 11

This is Spinal Tap is a cult movie of a heavy metal/rock band in which one of the characters, explaining his amplifiers, quotes "These go to 11".

This phrase has evolved to mean "taken to an extreme". In this case, the extreme is loudness of music which is the signature of the band. However Spinal Tap is no match for Disaster Area.
