A brief explanation of the issue

One of the most common misconceptions people believe when they notice that their earbuds sound too weak is that it's always the hardware fault. Increasing the overall loudness and sound quality produced by the input source usually does the trick. Simply have the paired device volume set to maximum. For example, if the paired device such as a laptop, pc, or smartphone has its volume set to 70%, then the sound quality, level, and loudness that your earbuds will produce will be limited to 70% as well.

The overall volume level of the earbuds is always dependent on the volume level of the paired device.

Such a situation can also affect the microphone quality during calls and video conferences.

Why do earbuds sound muffled?

The poor sounding audio coming out of your earbuds is caused by several factors. The most common culprit, most of the times, is signal strength. If you move too far away from its paired device, the audio quality of the earbuds will be greatly affected.
