I have the feeling that I might listen to music a bit louder than you do, too.

My AKG K-701s usually sound best to me at six or seven on the volume knob, while my Sennheiser HD650s usually only need a four or a five. This works well with good quality, dynamically uncompressed recordings.

With poor quality, "loud", and dynamically compressed recordings the above settings get shoved down a notch or two. So, the ideal volume setting often depends on the state of the recording, at least for for me.

I have the original dual XLR balanced version of the Sonett.
