Do you have to turn your device up (phone, or ippd etc) to a high volume to get a decent amount of loudness from the speaker?

I guess this depends on your idea of a decent amount of loudness, but from my perspective it does a good job. I do have it in my office which is somewhat small,and I don't know if that would make a difference or not.

I do, but I have a hearing loss in one ear. My son has one just like it and he doesn't readjust volume going from earbuds to the speaker. For the size and price, it's a great device.

In general, Yes. But each podcast has a different volume and time to time, you don't need to turn up your device. Overall, this device is loud enough to listen to it in a noisy environment.

Yes you have to turn the volume up as high as it goes depending on how loud you want it.
302567
No. This speaker has a wide volume range and can get quite loud (while the sound remains clear)

It seems like it has to be turned up a little more than my other Ihome speaker that I bought a couple of years ago. But it is still considerably loud enough for me.

The volume control on the speaker goes-up only so high. I put that volume control at the lowest level then adjust overall volume using the device. Then, if I need additional volume, I can increase it some using the speaker volume control.

Yes you can turn these volume settings up, but if this does not work, you may have a faulty one as we did.We had to return the first one and are now on our second iHome.

To my knowldege there is no "app" for controlling the volume from your phone. You can however turn the volume of the speaker up fully, and adjust your phone volume to suit your listening desire. It isn't ideal, but it does work. The speaker has never given off that tell tale hiss that some will give off at high volumes.

No, you adjust the volume from your device, wether an iPhone, android, computer, or mp3

Sort of. You can raise and lower the volume from the device that's playing the music, but it will only go as loud as you have the speaker set. So, if you have the speaker turned all the way up, you can simply control it from your player in that respect.

Yes, I've never had a problem. The device has volume adjustment so if there is noise you can turn it up very easily.

You can set the volume on the unit to the desired level with your phone or source at 3/4 volume. then control via your phone if you are not near the speaker.

Yes. You still have main volume control on the phone/device. The speaker itself volume gives minor adjustment to clean up sound or boost a little depending on device volume setting.

Normally the volume is regulated through the device that is hooked up to the speaker as there is no volume control button on the speaker. I would suggest to check the volume from the device.

Basically you control it from your phone or music device, but yes. You need to remove it in order to turn it up Cheers

I agree that the sound level of the on/off or low battery tones are too loud and a little annoying, but I am not aware of any way to control the volume of these sounds. I believe the only volume control you have over the unit is with your smart phone or other BT device that you connect to the speaker.

Yes, to some extent. Volume goes up to "9", while I see I currently have it set to "5".

I found on my I-phone if I set my EQ to the "late night" setting, the volume of the speaker dramatically increases. Quite an improvement

Yes! You can turn the volume up via your phone and the box and it gets very loud. I use I when I'm working in the yard!

From what I've read, it's usually better to have a little more power going to a speaker than not enough. Just don't crank the volume all the way up and you should be fine.

If by speaker fill, do you mean it produces a clean sound much louder than I can tolerate, then yes.

Thanks for your question. Volume setting depends on individual recordings and sources. It's not atypical to have to turn up the volume.

NO the device seems to compress the sound level changes a little so the louder volumes are lower
