sansa e200 comparatively quiet compared to other targets?

(1/2) > >>

michael.conner:
Have noticed that when using builds r14559-070831 and r14530-070830, my new e250 is much quieter than my Gigabeat at similar volumes.

My settings on both the sansa and the gigabeat = crossfeed off, replaygain on, replaygain in "track mode if shuffling," eq off.  To match the Gigabeat @ -25dB (too loud for quiet indoor listening), I have to turn the Sansa up to -15dB.

Are the volume scales on different targets supposed to match up?  Or is this simply a case of the Sansa build being still a bit young?

AlexP:
The volume scales are relative to line level at 0 dB, not absolute.

michael.conner:
Thanks for the clarification.  

woodensoul:
I have several Rockbox targets and the Sansa does seem to be the quietest by far, tested at full volume into the auxiliary input on my car deck.  I assume this is just do to lack of power in the amp in the Sansa.  Can anyone confirm?

senab:
I can definetly confirm this. It's definetly seems to be a rockbox issue too, as the OF is much louder in both 'normal' and 'loud' volume settings.
