While travelling back from Crete on a MON A321, I noticed that the reversers made a terrific noise from inside the cabin unlike a 737. I have not been on an airbus for a long time, but was wondering weather all airbus's have to use max reverse on landing or weather it was just pilot preference at this time?

Reverse thrust cannot contribute to much of the stopping potential of a jet aircraft on landing if the landing distances are calculated without the use of reverse thrust?
Many Thanks
Dan
