From: gilpel@altern.org gilpel@altern.org Subject: Getting more juice from a preamp? To: fedora-list@redhat.com Date: Saturday, July 11, 2009, 10:34 PM I listen to sound on my system with headphones, so I only use the preamp.
This aft, I was watching this feature on the cause of Beethoven's death:

but the sound is a bit weak. You don't miss anything, but you feel you have to be very attentive. Maybe they wanted to make you feel like you're getting deaf yourself :)
I checked alsamixer, but volume control is maxed out. Is there any other control somewhere else? Anything in alsactl or pulseaudio, for instance?
Thnaks!

Try the following:
$ alsamixer -c0 then $ pavucontrol
after adjusting those to your preference save your settings with $ su -c '/sbin/alsactl store'
put in your password and settings should be saved for next reboot, ***unless*** an update(s) breaks your configuration and let us hope that those things don't happen :)

Everything was pretty much maxed out. I maxed out surround sound too, as I believe the integrated audio card might support. Maybe it helped a little bit, or it's just that the room is more quiet at 1 am.
then $ pavucontrol
On x86_64 system:

Got to go to sleep now. See you later.
Thanks for your quick reply!
