So basically I bought some Sony “MDR” Extra bass model headphones back in 2018, I could found the actual model only on Spains page in case you want to check it out Cascos inalámbricos con Bluetooth y NFC | MDR-XB950BT | Sony Spain
Now, delighted by such mastery in sound, I bought the more recent SONY WH-1000XM4 back in 2022, and they disappointed me due to low volume level. Yeah, low volume. So, these headphones were beautiful, but low compared with the old ones from 2018, even at 100% volume was not enough for me, so I ended up selling them and staying with the old ones. (Not discussing sound quality or anything like that, just volume level).
Now I want to upgrade this old model and Im currently after the new “Sony WH-XB910N” but I´m pretty afraid of having the same problem with volume level and ending up returning to previous headphones, theyre just too old by now.
So, I just want to know if anyone else has made the comparison or can tell me more details about volume level on the newest Sony WH-XB910N before making my purchase.
PD: I know some people just use 70% or less because they feel is just too loud, but is not the case for me, I want the whole rock concert in my ears! hehe. Also, this is not a phone issue, MDR work fine on any device with same volume, XM4 was the same, so Im assuming is just the maximum volume capped by Sony. Dont want to rely on any amplifiers or anything like that. Other brands recommendations are pretty welcomed, not an expert on these topic.
Yeah, I’ve been researching a lot about impedance, sensitivity, etc. What I noticed is that MDR had more impedance 24ohms, so I thought the more the highest volume, but no… Lol. So, any recommendations?
I have no problem with my hearing, just need to max out the volume and not having to download any amplifiers because it sounds like it is still on mid volume.
