Dear sir
Since I bought Acer Helios 300 the speakers are really low on the maximum volume. I can barely hear some youtube videos when somebody speaks quieter while I have the youtube volume to the maximum and my laptop volume to the maximum as well. I have the newest audio driver. Any solution, please?

    my Predator Helios 300 also had a very low volume. This fixed the problem:
    Right-click the audio icon on the task bar and click "Sounds". Go to "playback" and double-click the default device and go to the "Custom" tab. Remove the check on "Limited Output" and then click "OK" to confirm.

    Do you have the dolby audio application installed? I noticed that when I disable it, audio volume gets really low.
    Nothing peaks at the same time...

    Using such 3rd party softwares to boost the sound output of laptop speakers will blow out the speakers! It will damage the speakers prematurely.
