Increase volume on weak laptop speakers w/ Windows 7

Nice tip, didn't realize windows 7 had built in loudness equalization

 

after try this tips, the result is false for me.

after check Loudness Equalization, the sound decrease

anyway thanks

 

The sound decreased on mine too but it seemed to sound fuller, i guess.

 

Same here a slight decrease in sound,don't know why..
Anyways good tip,may help someones..

 

I think the best method to boost volume on laptop is to attach external speakers

 

Install this:
Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (at sourceforge)
and this:
Matrix Mixer (it's on sourceforge too) < install with "run as administrator" on vista/7
Load media file in MPC, then on menu got to Play > Filters > MatrixMixer. There are more options and way more volume boost/leveling than VLC ever thought about. I can't believe more people don't know about this.

 

personnaly, on all my computers i always install "SRS Premium Sound", i can say the sound become incomparable from the original sound
its not free but u easily find the OEM version which is fully fonctionnal and doesnt need any activation

 

idsk, I installed SRS Audio Sandbox and the sound is way better now, so thanks for that. I still have to use VLC with 200% volume for a boost or MPC-HC with Matrix Mixer for for the most boost control, but I'm giving you a thanks anyway.

 

Update: I just found something that works great for volume boost and audio enhancement that also works with srs audio sandbox too. It's called Breakaway Audio Enhancer and works at the sound driver level so it works with everything. Flash videos, media players, everything. This is awesome. Don't know if I can link to it, so just google it.

thanks for this small guide! I'll try it at home on my notebook. Do you guys have any thoughts how this feature implemented influences the battery usage? Does it ends up faster with this feature adjusted?
