    Thank you, a very helpful guide, at least the first part, because I have an iPhone 6s running the latest 13.x iOS, so can't check the other settings. The Qcodes match, but compared to my old Major II wired headphones these require double the volume setting to reach the same level of perceived sound. I'm guessing this might be due to them being new and needing a few hours of use to "loosen up", or perhaps the Impedance value is different between the two models, i.e. this model III having higher impedance hence requiring more current for the same sound / movement of diaphram. Any suggestions are most welcome, thank you in advance.

    • @ElectronicsComputers

      If you're using wired headphones then there's not much you can do about it. try another player which can boost amplification higher than standard one.
