Has anyone noticed this? I have listened on two different sets of headphones, and one set a very high end professional DJ pair. And, while the sound was nice and clear, it never quite got loud enough for my liking.
Anyone else noticing this?
*Can't wait for an EQ/Bass boost/something

Reason: high end professional spelling

Belive me too, I know how loud they should sound. Plugged into an ipod, my computer, just about anything else and they pump out quite a bit more.
It's not the end of the world. It will probably save my ears as I'm sure I listen to music too loud But I was wondering if anyone else noticed the same thing.
now that you mention it, while i have my bose headphone on, it never gets too loud. granted the loudest setting is loud, but the headphones can take more.
listening to pandora... but levels on pandora vary from song to song
Edit: I should check the wave actually and be sure they are normalized. It's a start anyway's, I think i could possibly batch convert.

i haven't really used my "nice" headphones with it yet... now that you mention it... the levels could use a boost all around. this would also help with the levels being a bit low for hooking into my car stereo. hook it in to listen to pandora while driving, that's what i do for the most part.
yeah i was going to suggest normalization... but who wants to boost everything jsut for one device that is too low...

I guess I just don't understand the arbitrary line in the sand for this subforum. I mean what are we supposed to talk about in the main forum? How many screen protector threads and curious Blackberry users with a litany of requests can we have?
Ah well, not a big deal to be honest -- and time for sleep. Thanks for all your help tonight BH!

there is so much going on... just trying to keep it organized... have a good night alp...
I have noticed that while Max volume for the speaker is quite loud, the max volume with a pair of headphones plugged in isn't all that loud comparatively.

Yes, this was what I was noticing as well. It just needs a few db more of ooomf!
Is it just not as loud as usual, or is it incredibly quiet, even with the Droid's speaker? Something like this happened to me, and after resetting/pulling the battery, I finally had to wipe it back to factory settings. This cleared up the problem for me..

The speaker is fine, nice and loud. The audio in the head phones is like 80% of what I would expect kinda. Like I feel like various other devices would play the songs louder.
I'm going to do a comprehensive test over the holiday in between egg nog and naps though, and will report what I find
Looking for an answer to this one myself. I usually listen to music or watch videos while at the gym, this can be frustrating if someone behind me is pounding out on the treadmill, I can barely hear the audio anymore at max volume.
I forgot where I read it and the exact reason and I can't find it for the life of me. So this might not be that useful. I read that the better quality headphones are quieter than cheap quality. I don't remember if it had to do with the drivers, drawing more power, or frequency range or whatever, sorry. But I remember reading that. I know when I had the big over the ear Skullcandy ones the max volume was loud, but not kill your hearing metal band loud like I wanted. (btw skullcandy are cheap plasticy pieces of junk, I don't recomend them at all. The bass sounds cheap bad and synthesized punchy. And they break, cause they're cheap plastic.) I had 20 dollar sony ones that were much louder.
But as for the Droid volume, my Sony MDR-EX36V earbuds volume leave a lot to be desired but sound great and give awesome lows. But my Sony MDR-V6 are pretty damn loud. Maybe you're more deaf than me? Haha.

I definitely agree with everyone about the volume being to low when using headphones. In certain situations I have to crank the volume all the way up and it's still not loud enough. Hopefully someone can develop a app to address this problem...if that is something that can be fixed by an app. Well if anyone hears anything let us know!!!
The Motorola Droid - the first ever Verizon Android Phone - exploded onto the mobile market with an incredibly successful ad campaign that brough Android to the masses. With a huge and vibrant touchscreen, solid metal body, full QWERTY keyboard, 5M... Read More
Droid audio max volume kinda low?
But I was wondering if anyone else noticed the same thing.
