I agree about the volume control and find 12 o'clock is quite loud on most of my headphones. Good point about records late at night. After 10pm I generally prefer listening on speakers with the volume lower.

It's nice not to have to wear anything on the head or be attached to your equipment by a cable sometimes. Headphones are great but capable speakers are liberating.

With the Denon AH-D7000 (low impedance) and the ULDE, I usually play at these levels: - 10-11 for modern "loud" CDs (player: OPPO BD105D, which has a high 2V output) - 12-13 for older "quieter" CDs (same player) - 14-15 for vinyl with high output MM (Ortofon 2M Bronze or AT 440MLa) - 15-16 for vinyl with lower output MM (Grado Gold or Nagaoka MP500), especially with LPs that are mastered "quiet", and with really quiet ones I have sometimes gone to 17 too! Yes, I like it loud!

I like it loud. But I do find a difference between CD & vinyl, If I'm playing a record & then move to CDs I'll turn the volume down. This is more to do with the sound of a CD (for wont of a better way of saying it) It's more clinical or cold. I did read about one manufacturer (they make turntables) that wouldn't make their first CD player until they could make it sound more like a vinyl record.
