Question 1

Is there a way to turn down the ui (beeps when play/pause) volume? i wear earplugs with these and the ui volume beeps are excruciatingly loud.

Accepted Answer

There is no way for and end user to change the beep volume.  Supposedly, Aftershockz is aware of this. Their "R & D department is "working on this" and a "product of lower beep sound" will be "introduced to the production line" and "the volume of the sound will drop by 3dB".  (Source: A contact us / support request email exchange with Aftershockz in JAN 2021. No indication of which model or when this improvement will be introduced, but I am hoping soon and that they tell us when it happens).

If I remember correctly, the beeps on my older Trekz Titanium were a lot quieter.  The loudness of beeps on my recently purchased (Jan 2021) Aeropex Mini is very jarring and almost painful if I am wearing ear plugs or in a quiet environment.  I find that loud beeps aren't as bad if I am not wearing ear plugs, but definitely annoying and a bit uncomfortable.

In my opinion, this is a SERIOUSLY BAD DESIGN decision by Aftershockz. This has CHANGED my view of the Aeropex / Aeropex Mini from a really AMAZING, NEARLY PERFECT product, to something that I am SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING RETURNING.

(Since language settings can be changed by the end user, I think Aftershockz should seriously consider a programming a setting where you can mute these beeps for those sensitive to loud or abrupt sounds.)

(NOTE: I tried lowering & muting my ring tone and adjusting max volume settings on my phone per other commenter's suggestions, but this has not had any effect on the loudness of the headset button beeps.  I am not using an iPhone though.)

SOLUTION TO LOUD BEEP
iPhone:
Click Settings (that gear thing), then ...
Click Sounds & Haptics, then ...
Click Headphone Safety
Now turn on Reduce Loud Sounds
Move slider and experiment.  I moved slider to “85 decibels as loud as heavy traffic” and this was perfect for me.
Ok to thumbs up and move this to top
Android has the same setting but different menu system, so look for it.
I have Titanium, Aeropex, OpenComm and iPhone Bluetooth buds, this works for all.

Question 4

I have a 7 7/8 head (xxl) will they fit me? no back of the head headphones have fit yet.

Accepted Answer

The fit really has little to do with your head size relatively.  They fit around the back of the head where the neck begins so the fit has more to do with your neck and the distance to the back of your ears where the pex will hook.

For instance I wear a 7-3/4 or 7-7/8 ball cap and with the aeropex fit over my ears properly,  I have 1/2 inch of space at the back of my neck And the aeropex band.

The fit Is I'd say lightly snug but not at all uncomfortable.

Hope that helps.
