Hi!

  Just got my iP5 today and have some problem. Headphone volume level is lower than in my previous iP4, iPod Video 5g and my iPad 2 for about 20-25%. All audio settings are clear, volume limit on max and EU limit is off. I live in Poland, EU. I've found a thread about this on offiicial apple discussion site but no solution there by now. Anyone has it? Thanks.

How do you know it's off? I don't think it can be disabled.

Have you verified that Sound Check is ticked 'off' ?

I think phonedog or another tech blog documented that the iPhone 5 amp is unfortunately weaker than previous versions of the iPhone

Whilst it sounds poor compared to my n8 and other daps it happily drives my t50p and es7 with no problem. What headphones are you using?

Creative Aurvana Live!, Koss Porta Pro. The level is satisfying for home use, but there is not enough power to listen to music comfortable on the loud city street.
