I don't have Tidal, I tested the built in music app, Vox, foobar (all playing local files) and Google Play Music (streaming) and the volumes were very similar (also on iOS10).
Maybe our ears simply have a different threshold for volume. Do your friends or family also think the volume is too low?

Hmm, this is tough to trouble shoot over the internet. I reach significantly higher volumes with the cipher cable compared to the analog one - maybe you can check if this is true for you as well.
I don't use iPhone 6 for listening music anymore since I got the AK70 .
ASTELL & KERN is so much better and simpler than iPhone + Oppo HA2 playing HD files through Onkyo App...
SINE works well without amp out of AK70 - my average listening level is 110 (max is 150), and i listen loud.
After using SINE 6 month i dedicate it rather to listening while working (seated) plugged on Burson Air Dac/amp , streaming HD files . When mobile i found the Sine rather too big/heavy/fragile so I prefer earplugs AK70 combo. No more music (all files deleted... more memory available) in my iPhone which vibrate in my pockets to remind me it's only a phone/web/mail (photo) tool , not a musical instrument !
Cipher Cable is useless. Use DAP for Music , not iPhones...
i will save money on phone : when I replace my iPhone 6 I will chose Huawei (my wife's P9 lite is far superior to my iPhone 6).
i will save money on headphones : I will use earplugs (AZ- A2S results are better than Sine with AK70).
But let me tell you if you like music , DAP is a must.
(I discovered this lately, i was not a believer / early adopter on DAP until I tried)
Tried mojo + sine + p9. Put em all in light size bag. Pure miracle of music Camera and phone Having extra daplighting is handy but cant beat dap like mojo. Beside p9 had sdcard slot so no worry about being no space.

Hi,
I have chord mojo +iphone combo too but it's not very portable. I use mojo in hotel etc. as traveling dac.
When I am on the go I don't want any extra cables just phone in my pocket and headphones on head that's all.

Aynone tried the sine and shure se 846? Im considering selling my shures and get the sine.I have come to the conclusion that i dont like in ears cause of diss comfort.The sine looks like an good portable headphone for walking around.How is the isolation? it dont have to be super,want to to hear cars and stuff around me,but of course not destroying the the music completly.

Comfort-wise, to be honest, Sine didn't excel at that. YMMV as every person ears were different, but for portable use, esp for walking around, I'll take any IEM than Sine.
That said, I once took Sine for walking, it isn't bad, as it fold flat, I can rest it in my neck when unused. The cable is rather thick, so it is quite annoying to me when walking around, you might want to change to a lighter and thinner cable. Isolation is decent, I think about average of what on-ear is capable of. I have no problem using Sine in noisy environment. But yeah, comfort... I can't wear Sine for more than an hour before it hurt my ears. Again YMMV.
