Any way to make headset louder?

Jist purchased a hyper x stinger headset and wish it could be a bit louder. Is there anyway to make this happen?

Would an online 3.5mm amp do the job? Could be the drivers are maxxed out already though.

Possibly? Illdp some research. Having read up it cpuld be something to do with the impedance and that a mix amp might help with this. Althligh i dont really understand it all

i used one of these with my smartphone it wasn't capable of powering the massive agk headphones i had, worked very well to boost the sound in fact it was no different to having it plugged into my av receiver.

If your headset is plugged into the controller, then you need to adjust the options for the controller as well. I bought a HyperX Cloud Alpha Pro and it was really low volume even with the dial turned up on the headset. After a bit of searching, I discovered you have to go into the devices menu in the Xbox settings menu, select your controller and then adjust the volume options in there.
