Hey
Just got my Fidelio X1. The volume not exactly low, but I wish it would go higher. My phone (HTC One M8) lets me play at a higher volume with the headphones.
Specs:
Motherboard: MSI Z87 G45
OS : Windows 7 Professional
Cable : Fidelio X1 stock cable
Software: Spotify in particular is low volume. I also use VLC for FLAC etc, and here the volume is better. When watching movies in VLC I have to jack it up to 200%.
I have maxed all software playback volume settings I can find.
Do I need amp? sound card? both?
Why does my phone play at a higher volume using the headphones?
