Hi guys,

The speaker of my netbook S10-2 is broken and now i am using tiny external speakers with it. However, the sound output is very low even with all volume crankers up. Any mp3 with vol cranked up to 200% in VLC produces average loudness and youtube videos are barely audible. The same speaker with my Clip plus produces really loud sound at higher volumes.

So should i

(i) Purchase an USB Powered external sound card? I have read external sound cards have generally much louder volumes
(ii) Try to purchase a speaker with loud sound. Will this help?
