    HI, I have been searching on the forum and I don't find an answer to my problem,

    I like to listen music while I am at the bus or the street, but there is so much noise, and I can't listen to anything in the n800 while I am in the street.

    So my question is, is there a way that can I boost the volume?
    is there any mp3 player for the N8x0 that can do this?

    waiting for some replies.

    I can suggest using mplayer to raise the volume.

    But mplayer is not really what you need. Possibly other apps like canola have a config file that will let you do the same thing?

    Xmms will let you do this, I think.

    And mplayer can be used to play mp3s; I think kagu lets you use mplayer as a backend for mp3s. (It helps WRT BT audio, IIRC).

    Use equalizer via XMMS and put the equalizer all wavelength +10 db, provided your device, either your headphone or the N8x0 speakers do not have too much distortion

    There's also the pre-amp, don't forget the preamp...

    If you weren't deaf enough to need it up all the way, you will be in 5 minutes...

    (But really, I have used that for playing horribly quiet things in the past; now I just use mp3gain, and you should too. )

    Well, you could replace the system sounds with louder ones. But they get annoying, and in some cases performance-injuring... just say no to system sounds. I turn off touch-screen sounds, and leave the rest on loud.

    Canola can be configured to use mplayer for music, I'm using it with softvol-max=150 and i can say that i need to tune my volume down, 'cause my headphones can't take it
