Sound Check uses the song data scanned and stored by iTunes which mainly comprises of the playback volume of the original file. While the ‘Sound Check’ setting is ON it will adjust and limit the volume of all songs on your device to the same level thus affecting the sound output in most cases. Here’s how to enhance the sound output on your device.

The above methods of ‘Sound Check’ and EQ settings on your iPhone should bring out the maximum capacity of the sound output. If you still feel there’s a significant difference in your device’s sound output when compared to another device, you should check the basic volume limit settings under Settings > Music > Volume Limit and set the soundbar to the maximum.
