    Can someone explain why AMS2 audio that’s built on PC2 platform, the audio when set at the same settings is so much quieter than PC2? Is there a way to increase it through the files?
    I’m running studio monitors through studio mixer so it isn’t my equipment. All other game/sims are loud.

    So, changing player volume and vehicle to 99 and in windows enable Sonic surround for headphones has fixed it. Weird.

    ***Update*** Doesn’t fix it. Volume is low compared to other sims, regardless of audio settings.

    Do not use Sonic Surround. Remove "Headphone" output type if you have on and use modern 5.1 headset.

    Remove any mixer as well... My logitech Sofware for my headset messed things up.

    AMS2 audio levels are usually louder than many other racing sims. I run at 5% master volume which is roughly equal to -24dB. In other words, something is wrong if it's too quiet. Try what VFX Pro suggested above.
