The level of sound you get from your computer depends on the installed sound card and speakers. Both of these are hardware pieces and it is unlikely that you’ll go to market to get better versions in the middle of the night while trying to watch a movie! So, can you boost sound using software? The answer is yes, but of course there is a limit to which you increase the sound using software. If you want sound higher than this limit –you should get better speakers and sound card.
How to Increase Speaker Sound With Software
First of all make sure that the system sound on your system has been turned up to highest. For this:
Double click on the speaker icon given in the system tray (the area in bottom-right corner near clock) The sound mixer box will come up. Increase the volume of speaker to the highest.
Most people know and do only the above. But you can increase sound even more. Once you have completed the above step, you can further increase sound by using graphic equalizers of your media player. VLC Player is definitely is the best and free media player out there. I use and strongly recommend this free, lightweight, portable and amazing media player. Download VLC Player Open your movies/music file in VLC and click on the extended settings button to open the Adjustment and Effects box. In Adjustments and Effects box, tick /check the Enable check box and pull the slider to the top. You’ll notice that this will double the sound volume coming from your speakers. If you just want to use Windows Media Player -you can use the graphic equalizers of WMP also to boost up sound. But VLC does the best job. I often joke that VLC is so good that it can run even bad/scratched DVDs ;-) Alright, I hope it helped you in watching a movie or listening to a song. Let me know your comments or questions!
