x50 too loud!

You can also try using a media player with a sound system that's detached from the system volume. Try using GSPlayer (it's free and good quality, but looks like crap) or PocketPlayer (non-free, but my overall favourite media player for sound). You can also try betaplayer, though that's more designed to play back videos.

You might have to enable the detached sound control in the programs I mentioned...pretty sure about pocketplayer, not sure with gsplayer.

Many of the free players (for MP3) have equalizers built in that include a preamp slider. If you pull that preamp slider down a bit you might find a lower level that you are comfortable with.

I didnt think the x50v was loud enough so I purchased a set of ear buds that had a volume slider built into them (SENNHEISER MX500 STEREO EAR HEADPHONES). Can go really loud or really soft. Only $11.99 on ebay and sound great better than any other earbuds I have had.
