It is sunnah for the recitation aloud to be moderate in volume, neither too loud nor too low, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, did with Abu Bakr and Umar. The Imam recites aloud in the audible prayers with a volume sufficient for the congregants to hear. However, if there is someone beside him who would be bothered by a raised voice, then he should lower his voice.
