Increasing Notebook PC Volume

(1/4) > >>

Kruskal:
Every ThinkPad I've ever owned has inadequate volume (using internal speakers).  When the sound is turned all the way up, I can hear no signs of distortion.  So I imagine that it could go louder.

Does anyone know how to get it louder?

Thanks -- Vincent

Darwin:
Now this sounds like a great idea. I'm in the same boat with the speakers on my notebook - useless (and yet, like you Kruskal, I always have them at full volume with no distortion that I can detect)...

Mooseman:
I did find this article that gives a way of increasing the sound:

By using the equalizer of a particular software, you can even limit the frequencies that will cause distortion (mostly the lower band or bass) and increase those that will allow you to hear better.

Darwin:
!Thanks Mooseman, I'll take a look!

What we need to solve this problem in general is an equalizer (with amplification) that comes between the audio card and the rest of the system.
