Hi all. Not sure if this is a windows problem but basically my sound when using speakers is fine. Its loud and crisp. But when I put headphones in I have to ramp my sound up to 100 and it still seems low when watching youtube and playing games.

I have a gigabyte ga-z170-hd3p motherboard and am using realtek driver: 6.0.1.8036 which is dated as january 2017.

I have no enhancements ticked aside from immediate mode in the sound options.

I have tried with earbuds and a second set of headphones alongside my main headphones and they all have this issue. So its got to be some setting somewhere.

Not sure what other information I can post to help figure out the issue so please tell me! :)
