That sounds a little bit moronic, I do know there's a volume slider! Let me explain...

On the turbo, I've been watching ripped TV series on VLC, because it goes a lot louder than other playback apps I've used. The laptop seems happy enough with that. But watching Netflix, with everything maxxed out, it's generally a lot lower. So I figure I could get a cheap inline amp but that shouldn't be neccesary, the PC can be loud enough, it just doesn't seem to have a setting to turn it up to 11!

Any ideas? Ideally, free and simple ones. First person to suggest linux is getting an opensourced chinese burn.

possibly one of these, depending on your sound drivers etc. I get a 200% range by default on most of mine

Can you go into system, sound/audio and increase the db , it's usually a vertical slider. I'd been Mac for 15 yrs so don't know exact pc procedure.
