#Headphone volume too low windows 10 android#

Works great on Laptop but read about the issues with Android (also tested with a Sony Xperia Z5) and for Spotify the volume is too low. Recently tested out a Dragonfly Red and sounds great with my Shure SE846'sВ even compared to my Chord Mojo (though Mojo stillВ better as expected), but mainly want to use it on the go with my Samsung S7 phone. Also, from what I've read, the DFR use slightly less power than the DFB so its not a power issue. Works fine if using UAPP App (that has its own audio driver) and with my ShureВ SE846 IEMS's it is just loud enough for meВ at max volume with Spotify, so keeping mine as they are working on a fix but no indication when available. What other similar quality DACs can I get for $200 that are also Android compatible?

But what good is better audio quality, if there isn't enough quantity to tell? It seems like there SHOULD be a simple solution. What should I do? I'm reluctant to return the Red, since the sound quality is better than anything I've heard, handily better than even the Black.

What is going on here? All settings are exactly the same, yet the results show that something is very wrong here. None of my other headphones can reach even moderate volumes with the Red. With the Red leading to either amp, I can BARELY reach a sufficient volume with the Grados. Obviously this doesn't make any sense, but there is no denying that this is what's happening. In theory I should be able to drive more headphones directly from the Red without an additional amp, but in practice, the Red is putting out a tiny fraction of what the Black was pushing! And its not close, the Black is FAR more powerful. I heard the Red produced better sound quality overall (an indeed it does), so I upgraded. I first bought a Dragonfly Black, and with it's output leading to either amplifier I own (Fiio e11 and Fostex HP-V1), I could just drive the 250-ohm Beyer DT880 at adequate levels (amps at 100% power), which meant plenty of power to blow out something like my Grado sr225e, and probably my AMG K240 also, at 100%. As I'm not alone in experiencing this issue, and its major enough that without a solution it's a dealbreaker, so it deserves a thread of its own. This has been mentioned in the huge Red/Black discussion forum, but I couldn't find a solution anywhere in there.
