What preamp are you using?
With my Benchmark HPA4 preamp and AHB2 amp set to low gain setting (the defaults) I really need to move the volume control to the far right to get high volume, just the way I like it.
This combo also sounds great at low volume, which is unusual for me with past gear. Sometimes I listen at low volume late at night even though I have the amazing Meze Empy headphones which I can plug into the HPA4. You hear everything even at low volume, just quieter.
