Is the audio as bad as some comment

If you find audio quality insufficient, you can always buy a laptop soundbar from e.g. Logitech, Philips, etc., which can be fixed to the screen or sit stand-alone. There should be greater volume, with much reduced distortion, and significantly enhanced bass.

The volume was low, but certainly OK. Audio is good enough to enjoy you tube videos to see what's trending, but probably not good enough to enjoy your favorite tunes. I have not watched movie.

On the one I purchased who knows, since it wouldn't go past the error screen. But my 13 year old loves his and says audio is great. It must be since he has been sitting there with ear buds in his ears since he opened the box! Good Luck

I'll add my $0.02. The sound isn't great and it's not loud enough. However, I found using headphones takes the sound quality from a 2 to a 10+. You could also purchase a small usb plug speaker.

My audio plays with good quality just not as loud as I would have thought it could be.

The audio that comes out of the speakers seemed OK for the price/size of this netbook. However when under chromeos, the volume was a little too low even when set to max. After I switched to Ubuntu, I was able to boost the volume to really decent levels.

The noise is quite low, almost inaudible. On a rare occasion, she got a little louder, but nothing too terrible in all honesty. The output for games has also been rather nice if you're currently stuck with internal graphics.

Hi Carly, I do not remember it having any kind of Audio, at least definitely no way out. I purchased the Logitech instead and it's even worse.

Honestly, its terrible. Any POV cam I have come across has terrible sound recording quality.

my friends said i sounded "HORRIBLE", and "in a tin can", etc. two said to put my broken logitech headset back on because it sounded better, lol. My other issue with these headsets was not being FULLY compatible with Win7 64bit to where you can't even use the voice morphing which is just for fun anyway but still regrettably unusable with my OS.

I have had the same question after buying it. I can barely hear the playback. Which is why I don't use it anymore.

I have not notice a decrease in audio. If anything it would be less than 10%

When you say bad, I'm assuming you mean; amazing.It's amazing around 2.1K to 2.3KIt's the only music I listen to unless I'm standing still. But you'll need a V8 to be impressed.

There is no probably about the sound. It is bad. Sounds like music and headphones are playing in a tin can.

I haven't experienced that phenomenon yet but I will be on the lookout for it game day. I am not too thrilled with the sound though. I have hooked up to the surround sound but the noise affects are much louder than the dialogue. Over all I love the picture and I think I made a solid purchase.

They are indeed terrible and barely audible, at least on my monitor. I thought it was a defect until I saw everyone else mention the same problem.

If its the audio file itself no. If its because of a bad sound card, probably

According to the people I've talked to while using it, it's pretty bad. My dad suspects the microphone is too sensitive, so it clips (if you're familiar with that sound phenomenon) unless you're talking quite softly and you move the mic as far away from you as possible. I would not have purchased it if I knew it would sound this way.

Better audio, higher price. Take a look at SoundBlaster Roar. You will not regret spending a few minutes on it.

Had a bad experience with this... Sounded like pure crap. Everything was hollow. If you can spare the extra money look into the m audio or 2i2
