Are the ATH-AD700 supposed to be really loud?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 

When I plug them in my computer it's blaring loud. I have to set the windows master volume on 1% and lower whatever else im listening to also. I also tried them on my sister computer which has vista on it and still the same. tried it with the ipod and i can still hear the music even tho i set the volume on 0%. i uninstalled the audio driver and that didnt work. also when i plug them into my steelseries usb soundcard it gets even louder. Is my headphone defective?

 

im on win7 using on-board sound with the headphone plug into the jack in front of the computer case.

This happens to my Denon IEMs as well, so I don't think it's your headphones. Also, some cheap headphones I have does this as well. I think it's something to do with the computer, and not the headphones.

Nope they are not that loud, You have mentioned that on the iPod is also loud? now that is weird i have listened to them on about half way volume on my iPod since they are 40 ohms.

 

But sometimes depends on the computer, have u tried to update the sound drivers.
