AirPods Max quieter on MacBook Pro then on iPhone

[AjTee]

Hello,

I am owner of AirPods Max. I have connected them to my new MacBook Pro 14" with macOS 12.1.

I have noticed that sound on them is quieter then when they are in use with iPhone 12 Pro with newest iOS. I have noticed it in Music app.

Volume is maxed out on them in system and in Music app.

How to fix it? Is it bug or feature?

Regards,
Jacob

is specialize stereo or atmos enabled? I find that makes the audio quieter

Also change to internal mic in Sound Settings.

I just disabled sound equalization in Music app preferences and it works fine now.

Listening on max is likely too high a volume to prevent hurting your ears unless you have limiting set.
