    sound level is too low


    My sound level is too low.

    I'm at 100%, and the "Volume Mixer" shows that everything is at 100%.

    I'm listening to classical music, but still it's not normal that I don't get hurt at 100%.

    What can I do to get a normal sound level ?

    it's not normal that I don't get hurt at 100%.
    I doubt anyone here would want that to happen!

    What is producing the sound you hear? No clues in your post..
    - laptop speakers?
    - headphones? Type? Connection?
    - external speakers? Wired? Wireless?
    - over HDMI to a TV?

    Many possibilities.

    Have you..
    checked these levels?

    History: (so often not given by posters)
    - when was the sound last loud enough?
    - what has changed since then?

    Specs: Make and model? Click 'My Computers' below my post for comparison). Tutorial available.
    The forum prompted you for your Win 10 build number (So we dont have to keep asking) - so many ignore that.

    I installed mp3gain.
    One test file went from 78 to 89db.

    Classical music is so low volume because of large dynamic range.

    I use quality earbuds ("beats").

    But it's still an issue.
    Using an Hauptwerk organ with asio4all, the softer sounds are too low level at 100%.
    Fortunately, in Hauptwerk, there's a "Speaker level adjust dB" settings.
