With the Hornet on Low Gain with your E500's or other quality IEM's where is your volume knob on most songs using the clock method.

also make a note if you listen to anything other than low gain with IEM's

Take the poll

Helpful suggestion: You should specify in your post which gain setting you are talking about =)

Good Point LOW GAIN

but note if you use a higher gain with IEM's and what they are.

Also... doesn't this also depend on the output volume of the source device?

I was assuming LINE OUT but if not let's say 75% on the IPOD volume.

Usually at volume mark 1 on low gain with UM2s.

The Um2's must be very sensitive or the amp is on steroids LOL

 

[GIGANTOID]

The UM2s are very sensitive but shouldnt be overly so above the E500. Check your silver hornet thread for a reply re: volume too.

first hash is a whipser.

I think my amp is just a bit lower gain but then again look at the poll there are others like me!

With all of the IEMs I've used I rarely go past the first hash mark on the volume dial using low gain with the iPod's line out. Anything above the second hash mark is ridiculously loud.

Ray himseld says he listens around 10:00. I have to believe my gain is lower than most then. I can get the E500's up to 3:00 on a low recording

 

[Skylab]

With my Hornet M on low gain and my E500's, I am always below 9:00.

Doesn't this depend on the output of the source as well? I personally use a LOD. I'll vote when my Hornet "M" arrives.
