main gear touchdown sound

I don't know if anybody noticed this before or am I just going nuts. It seems to me that the sound of the main gear touching down on most FS planes is exaggeratedly loud. From what I have observed on several cockpit videos, this sound isn't usually as pronounced as the thump of the nose gear touching down on a real airplane. Now, I played around with sound.cfg and decreased the max volume of left and right touchdown sound file ... to no avail. If someone could steer me in the correct direction to fix this problem, that would be greatly appreciated.
