# Boom, Amazing, get some decent volume on your Mac

Published: 2013-01-26

<p>What is it you do on the "world's most advanced desktop operating system that just got even better" when you can't hear a freaking thing on netflix because the sound coming out of your premium speakers on your premium computer is so low you need caption (or yeah, external speakers or headphones - none of which were an option) ? You spend some more money of course, on software, in this case</p>
<h2><a title="Boom" href="http://www.globaldelight.com/boom/">Boom</a> - Mac volume booster and system-wide equalizer</h2>
<p style="text-align: left;">The fact that an app has "Mac volume booster" on its name tag speaks, erm, volumes, but hey, it won awards (sic). <img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-42633" alt="Boom for Mac" src="/content/posts/2013/01-26-boom-amazing-get-some-decent-volume-on-your-mac/images/Screen-Shot-2013-01-26-at-21.13.38.png" width="764" height="644" /></p>
<p>So for 5,99€ I fixed my problem (sic) and got an equalizer, it's most definitely 5,99€ I wish I didn't have to spend, but since a search showed that this has been an issue since 2007 (at least) and no simple-let's-just-not-recompile-the-kernel solution (warning: Exaggeration might be present), I'm going to go ahead and recommend this piece of software, it should never be needed, but it works.</p>
