Review in the comments! Vs Sony 1000XM5 and other Focal headphones. I have mixed feelings.

I just got a pair and my main issue is it goes from "This track is a little too quiet" to "oh my God I'm gunna die!" Way too fast

If you're on Android, go to Developer Options, search for "Disable absolute volume" and turn it on. It gives you more volume steps - the headphones and phone have two separate volume controls.

For DAC mode, there's no fix. But 3.5mm mode is good with an amp!

If you don't have Developer Options, you have to go in About -> Software -> Tap "build number" many times to unlock them
