will this increase the regular volume when listening to a video on youtube?

Yes it will. I would highly recommend this simple application to support your computer.

If you use your TV volume control, the volume will go up or down as you choose. The way this works is to reduce the Peaks and Valleys of the sound so that the level is more constant. I am somewhat hard of hearing, and this is a wonderful device (IMO).

Yes, It will take any audio that is put into the input jack and adjust the output volume from 0 (No audio) to 2-3 times the volume of the input signal, depending on where you set the volume control knob.

Not unless you are listening at incredibly loud levels. It also depends on how sensitive your mic is. I was listening to music the other night at normal levels and an incredibly loud song started playing, causing me to turn it down quickly, but not before my wife was awakened.

Mine certainly get loud. I would assume it is your source. Make sure the volume on your computer is up.

I'm assuming you're referring to the recording volume so, yes, you can adjust the recording volume to a level appropriate to the need. Of course, you can also adjust the playback volume as well.

Not that I have noticed. We are usually listening at less than half source volume so an adjustment to increase volume can be made. My daughters are typically the ones using the splitter function on a laptop and adjust it to their own preference. I used the splitter to control headphone volume on a bedroom TV audio out since that audio out could not be controlled through the TV.

Yes. There is a setting that needs to be enabled. I use it frequently for casual watching that doesn't need the full audio system playing.

No, the volume will only get to the loudest your device can get, it won't add any "loudness". Although you can turn your device all the way up and just use the volume control on the headphones. Hope this help!

Just push the minis (-) button to lower the volume or the plus (+) to increase volume.

it should add more power to your speakers... might make them clearer... upgrading speakers will make in clearer for sure.

Hi, I used it with audio books. It didn't increase the volume dramatically. But you can locate it closer to your ear which helps.

Not necessarily, but it's possible. If your current amplification source (e.g. the internal headphone amp in a PC, phone, or whatever) distorts at higher volume, using an external amp like this can allow you to turn the volume knob down on your device and reduce this distortion. If your current amplification source can boost volume without distorting, then you should not notice any improvement in sound quality

No. You adjust the volume via the device that you are linked to. It's not bad though and actually is plenty loud.

I just change the volume on the device that is playing, like my iPhone for example. Hope that helps!

No, from my experience it will turn down all sounds that are above your volume setting.I am still deciding if the item works that well.

No it will not increase volume louder than what you set. it is made to keep volume at a steady level when loud commercials come on. in your case go to radio shack or ebay.com or amazon.com and buy a wireless headphone. you plug it into the tv audio output and you wear the headphone like earmuffs and you can adjust the volume as loud as you want with a knob on the headphone. i have used sentry HO-800 for years. hope this help you.
