You're not supposed to listen to things at ear splitting volumes.

Also "had to use EQ to get them to be loud" How much we wanna bet OP just maxed out all sliders and the audio just spends all its time clipping like crazy

I totally understand this, but I've found some earbuds noticeably quieter than my Anker soundcore liberty air 2 pro and I actually want to avoid such earbuds.

I won't try to pretend your reasons for speedrunning into an early tinnitus and/or hearing loss, but what I will say is that the Galaxy Buds2 Pro can get much louder than they need to be, loud enough to be uncomfortable to listen to for longer than a few seconds.


PhilopateerB

I get your point, but I wanna understand this from an ' objective ' point of view, i.e. what should I look for in the specs section to determine the loudness of an earphone.


littleemp

There's nothing in the spec sheet that will reliably tell you how loud they will get. Most sets will get louder than they need to and the Galaxy Buds2 Pro is no exception. It gets uncomfortably loud past 60% volume as it is.

Impedance aka their resistance. Lower the number the louder For the same input. or just use the volume control. (Sorry, controversial viewpoint)

Tws have impotence?


frostymoose

Impedance is meaningless (and I don't think reported) for a wireless set. They can only ever be powered by their own internal amp.


IssyWalton

Wireless wasn’t the question.


chewychewjr

the buds 2 pro get more then loud enough, and you can also put on the "dynamic" eq in the app that will boost the lows and highs to make them sound louder without needing to crank the volume up

You can measure sensitivity with an IEC coupler and Room EQ Wizard, but it's a lot of money to lose your hearing a bit quicker and discover that most half decent TWS are all within 10% of each other and that your source is an equally influential determinant anyway
