Weak volume when playing Mp3

[troyk]

Am i the only one that's bothered by the weak volume when playing mp3's?

When i'm working out at the gym i can hear the rather soft background music through the music that i'm playing on my phone.

How are your opinions towards this 'problem' and has anyone found a software 'booster' or another solution?

Thanks in advance and great forum by the way!

Well, try pocket music http://www.pocketmind.com/pmfp.htm or core player http://www.coreplayer.com/
I am personally using pocket player for the gym everyday along wihth A2DP Stereo Bluetooth headsets and the music is WAAAY too loud comparing with the default media player of the device. Mark that Pocket Music uses an extra bass feature that really ups the whole music sensation.

yes, I use the pocket player and I have to set the sound to 30%, because its really loud and hurting my ears when its set to 100%.

I have core player installed so i'll check that out first before trying the Music Player.

Still i was kinda liking the Music Player that came with the Rom because of it's fast Ipod-like interface.

Checking out the volume as we speak, will post findings.

Checking with the core player, turn eq on. Makes a huge difference in volume when using coreplayer..;) In pocket music player the opposite is happening..:)

I liked a lot the default music player myself first time I booted the device, but when I saw no eq and low volume never run it again..

Core player makes me happy, 100% volume is ear-destroying but 60% is a nice setting.

Many thanks for the tips and advice.

I need high volume as well. I think I tried pocketmusic - maybe an older version and found no difference in volume or EQ.

It's also highly dependent on the type of earphones you use:

if I use the ones that came shipped with the phone I can easilly turn both the phone and HTC Audio player/WMP up to 100 % without it beging really tough on my ears.

with my highly sensetive koss plugs I can only go to 50 % before it really starts hurting my ears

Right.. Just use earphones having 100db or more..
My personal faves are the Sennheiser CX-300. Cheap, super bass and LOUD!!
