Oh no! What has apple done!! Since the update to my AirPods Pro the warmth bass volume and immersive sound stage have disappeared, everything sounds muddy and not as clean, I’m having to crank the volume-up to 100 decibels to be part of the music where as before it was a comfortable 80-85, it’s so disappointing, hope this is fixable Apple as I was considering purchasing the AirPods Max but not if the sound experience is like this.
Got a tip for us?

If you are having problems, make sure and inform Apple.
It is not safe to listen to music as loud as you are. You are damaging your hearing.

No. There’s not a lot to change only the noise control which is just fundamentality noise cancellation, off, or transparency mode, for me theres a definite change to the sound I guess it’s probably the trade off for all the bug fixes and in time I’m sure will get used to. ?
Mine must not have updated (I suppose keeping Wifi on my phone off, blocking mesu.apple.com at the router and turning off auto install/auto downloads helped) because if I switch on ANC I can't hear anything outside. It's kinda creepy. Like being in a vacuum. I always favor transparency. At least I don't become that poor sap who didn't hear the truck approaching behind him on the street and didn't see him.
Suppose if you're a passenger on a train or airline flight it's alright, though. 99% my use is at work or on hikes.
