If its just the standard speakers, then its got a decent volume. But to avoid causing ear damage Nintendo lowered the total volume output when using headphonesIs it really that quiet?
My N3DS XL is very loud , I always play it with medium-low volume
Using headphones with the volume at max it makes my ears bleed...If its just the standard speakers, then its got a decent volume. But to avoid causing ear damage Nintendo lowered the total volume output when using headphones
Why would 3DS have a surround sound option? How can you even get Surround audio on the system alone?Well there's this, it's a hardware mod, but simple to do: https://gbatemp.net/threads/hardwar...volume-of-your-3ds-some-models-so-far.400221/
Go into your settings on your 3DS and change the audio from "Surround" to "Stereo" if it sounds muffled, idk random thing I saw when googling
Not really sure what else to tell you, get better headphones if you don't already have? Pref with bass boosting, it'll "feel" louder, at least it does to me, but I also am hypersensitive
I've actually just tried using my headphones again and its much louder than I remembered it. Perhaps it could be because I'm using the N3DS XL, I remember having low volume issues with the O3DS XL.Using headphones with the volume at max it makes my ears bleed...
EDIT: You can even listen it without putting you the headphones
Maybe it's hardware fault?
(or maybe personal tastes)
Nintendo is weird like that, maybe they had plans they never met up to the idea of later down the line? (attachable speakers?)Why would 3DS have a surround sound option? How can you even get Surround audio on the system alone?
My o3DS is super loud with my headphones, then again I have noise cancelling headphones that also boost the bass xmxI've actually just tried using my headphones again and its much louder than I remembered it.

Could also be personal preference, been having to use lower volumes with headphones for the past year and a half when I noticed my ears were being damaged from loud volumes
Well i mean the wii u game pad has the same setting. I dunno how was it supposed to work, espcially for game pad, but a console tv, sure it would make sense. I assume maybe nintendo planned to make a surround sound accessory purchasable or something, or least some kind of 3DS player for tv or whatever. (Like playstation vita tv) Would been nice, least if wii u could play CART NDS/3DS games.Nintendo is weird like that, maybe they had plans they never met up to the idea of later down the line?
It gives a surround sound effect, not actual support for surround sound speakers; it's still stereo.Why would 3DS have a surround sound option? How can you even get Surround audio on the system alone?
Thats not really amplifing...Or you can connect the 3DS headphone port to your computers' microphone port, and listen through your computer. You can amplify the audio by changing microphone settings.
Which Fiio are you using? Mine does the job superbly well and I use very high impedance power hungry headphones.I'm still waiting for a hack like this. The headphone port either doesn't give enough power or the OS is limiting it. For now I use a small FiiO mini amp, it doesn't do much though.
there's a resistor afaik in the port, if you put a cable (solder?) to bypass it that will make it louder and better quality according to people who did a tutorial on this.I'm still waiting for a hack like this.

If you are using IEM theres absolutely no reason it wouldnt crank the volume up to levels where it would be harmful to your hearing...
The resistors are 1mm x 2mm in size. I've done it, it's not exactly an easy mod. I probably would say no if someone offered me money to mod theirs just because I wouldn't want to risk breaking it.there's a resistor afaik in the port, if you put a cable (solder?) to bypass it that will make it louder and better quality according to people who did a tutorial on this.
