Xperia XZ Audio level in comparison to previous models - Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers

Right now i have an Xperia Z5 and my biggest issue is the volume when i'm playing music (either headphone jack or bluetooth)
The audio is just very low, i tried messing with all the advanced audio settings and i still can't get it to a decent level.
The best example i can give is in my car using an aux cable with my z5 at max volume, and the car stereo at max volume, i can barely here the music over the wind blowing on the highway
My friend's iphone on the other hand, same car, same aux cord, max volume, max car stereo, can hear everything clearly over the wind on the highway
Sorry if this all sounds dumb as hell, the main question is has anyone compared the xperia xz volume is when playing music, etc through the headphone jack/bluetooth vs previous xperia devices?

I do not have a xz. But the IPhone's DAC is reasonably good. I also curious about the Sony audio quality.
HTC 10 is maybe a solid choice.

[Q] X-mini II speaker with Desire HD

I just bought this xmi x-mini II speaker
the sound is incredibly loud and very good bass for its size
when connected to my laptop, ipod or iphone...
while connecting it with my desire hd its volume has just enough loudness,
on max volume on phone and max on xmini speaker...
i wonder if how many power output from the 3.5mm earphone jack the desire hd have,
does it cause this or is it just a software issue since the speaker has built-in battery that could last up to 12 hours on normal playback so i guess power output is not an issue.
anyone got this speaker?
I've got one of these; awesome little thing and excellent battery life too.
I've not tried it in any other phone so I can't judge how much louder or quieter than other devices the headphone output on the DHD is. Still, 'loud enough' for me...

I may have the solution, I also have a X-Mini and it's possibly the best gadget I've ever bought, the problem is not the X-Mini but it's in fact your Desire HD or should I say the software. I found the fix for this by accident and posted it in the general forum and it worked for just about everyone. Do this, plug in your X-Mini play your music and put everything as loud as possible on the phone and on the X-Mini, while it's playing open up the phone and make a phone call, the call needs to go all the way through, end the call and presto magic !! Listen to the sound difference... be prepared to put the volume down. If this does not work try downloading volume ace from the market and turn everything up with that.
I found this fix one day by accident when I had my phone plugged into the audio jack of my car.

Nexus 4 to Z3 - Headphone volume

I have been seeing reports of the Z3 possessing below average volume levels for music playback through headphones. I was wondering if anyone with the experience of headphone volume levels for both the N4 and Z3, are they similar or is the Z3 even quieter?
Thanks!

I cannot compare - but Z3's headphone volume is real low. Even with in-ear headphones there's no chance of achieving volumes which might even cause a slight tickle in your ears.
Sony spoiled it, as usual.
PhoneArena rates the headphone output power of the Z2 at 0.29V and N4 at 0.28V. I find the N4's volume level sufficient for me. So I guess the Z3 wouldn't be quieter than the N4, given its slightly higher output power?

Z3 is a lot louder than my nexus 4.. thats for sure. headphones.

Having issues with audio levels with headphones.

I just recently ordered the 1more triple driver earbuds. They sound great. But I have to have the volume maxed out to get a decent level. I'm mostly using Google Music to listen to music. I was having similar issues even using a pair of cheap JVC earbuds. But with the 1more it's even worse. I'm wondering if it's the amp limitations or a faulty device. Any input would be greatly appreciated!
I have a pair of AKG Y20Us and sometimes I have to max them out to get a comfortable level, and sometimes max volume is way too loud for me, I'm not sure what the deal is.

Bluetooth connection weak

Hello i have very bad connection with earphones QCY T1C signal is skipping, sometimes playing mono, quality is changing i little bit. And sometimes it is very good. I had same earphones connected with Nokia 7 Plus and absolutely no problem in the same areas. Phone is in the front pocket and earphones in ears of course so no big distance. That's all. Maybe i must wait for the update from Motorola. Or can i do something myself? Thanks
I haven't encountered any issues with Bluetooth yet.
Been using sony speakers and headphones, + a bunch of other bt headphones. Most of them with ldac support.
Only time it's been skipping is when using ldac codec with highest bitrate transfer (990kbps) and some distance, but that's expected.

Bluetooth Volume?

Hi All,
I have recently come back to the OP7P after using an XS Max. I have been using Airpods 2 with the iPhone and the volume on Bluetooth was superb. Most the time I listened with it a few steps from maximum.
Now with the Oneplus I'm currently using the Cambridge Audio Manomania as they had really good reviews but the volume is no where near. I've tried changing the absolute volume setting, flashed the booster in magisk and tried using AVCRP 1.6 but it's still really low.
Does anyone know any Bluetooth buds or USB c headphones that will at least deliver similar volume to the Airpods?
I recently purchased these Treblab earbuds and I am happy with them. They don't sound as deep as my Phaiser headphones but when the volume is raised on the Treblabs it's pretty crisp sounding and volume is pretty high. I want to add that I have never used the apple airpods though. I just downloaded one of the viper audio mods and I'm going to see how that interacts with the Treblabs.
Over all I'm loving them though..pretty loud and my work environment is noisy

I've Xs Max too & I'm using First Gen Airpods with 7 Pro & They get pretty loud , equivalent to iPhone. Only Thing I noticed is that maybe battery drains faster. I'm not rooted, everything is stock
Maybe I'll have to try airpods again just wasn't sure how well they would work.
Was thinking of powerbeats Pro as well but no way of testing them before hand
I got Amiron Wireless of Beyerdynamic and I am fine with them.
