Hi,
It is kind of really annoying, the sound (earphone) isn't lound enough, I really like when it is loud. I do have good earphone, on my iPad, it can be so much loud that I could get deaf. Anything to fix ? I've tried 3 differents Volume Booster on the Google Market and it makes a little louder but still not enough and break all the sound quality.
Thanks you ! I'm runing Stock 4.1.1
Anyone plase?

Hmm I see :/ Can't we somehow fix that ? Is it only Nexus 7 or all Android Tablets?
I really dont care about speaker, but I was expcting something good from my hearphone

Nope, it is what it is. It sounds like you already tried something like Volume+ to boost the volume. It helps a little, but it starts sounding bad if you crank it too high and you could possibly damage it too. I have Volume+ set to 7, which gives a bit of a boost without messing up the audio much.
Yeah I see :/ Is it a hardware limit or software related?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I think it's hardware since every software hack to make it louder gives a little boost and then it sounds like crap.

What if I use Blutooth hearphone? Is it going te be as great as an iPad?

Have you tried Volume+? Seems to work for me.

Yeah I did but still not loud enough and the quality get poor.
If I buy bluetooth hearphone, will it fix ?

People have been reporting broken speakers when playing too loud. Just be cautious
I aleady use Volume+ and it is not enough.
If I buy Bluetooth headphone, will it be better?

I find the volume of my Nexus 7 just fine, both internal speaker and headphone. But I guess the experience can vary between people and device...

Really Why not
It's not necessarily hardware, my asus transformer had low volume, then an os update sorted that all out. Have you tried out different apps to see if the problem is there on all of them. I noticed that netflix volume is pretty low but youtube is fine. It's a bit of a pain to do, but it might be worth backing up your apps and trying a factory reset.
Oh well I change rom so often that it will unlikely change anything

My speakers sound terrible, too. I just got it off of Swappa. Slightly disappointed with the speaker quality. At a decent volume (where I can actually hear it), it sounds like awful.
Speakers Ok here!
i have the same problem here. first it was anything over 50% volume and now its gotten worst so im sending it off to get repaired
The speaker is one of N7 weaker points. It will crack from time to time.

I noticed that I did pick up unwanted noise on recording videos, but really I would rather it be too sensitive than not enough.
I had an iPhone 4 and now I have a Nexus 4. When I hear music with headphones beats by dr.dre iPhone would hear fine but now I can not hear a clean sound.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Thank you.

Lose the overrated headphones and get something cheaper and better!
I heard that have an app that fixes the problem.
Is that true?
Go to the play store and do a search for eq apps, play around with the settings until your happy with the sound and also try out your ear buds you got with the iPhone and see how they sound.
I've found the nexus 4 to be quite flat in terms of eq and that's a good thing in my opinion.

I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE.
I have a pair of ATH-M50s and these things are a beast!
So that being said, my PC, macbook, and iPhone 4S, before I traded it in for this, are really loud. The GS4 doesn't go loud as it should. I used poweramp as the music player, but it's a hideous music player and clogs up the screen.
Really upsetting that Samsung limits the volume for us to hear. Hopefully someone has a fix for this or something?

Seriously?? You think the volume is low?? I think the volume through both speakers and headphones is quite high and a lot clearer than my previous phone, an HTC Vivid, which utilizes "Beats" audio.
But I do believe that Beats on the Vivid was simply a software modification of the sound like an EQ adjustment, rather than anything like a hardware change.
And just for reference, I use a pair of Denon AH-D1100 headphones quite frequently.

Thanks, don't know how I missed the post above mine. Oh well. Patiently wait I suppose. What is a good sound mod that will also boost volume? I am using PowerAmp, but some of my albums are not very loud, and generally running 320kbps.

On the newer htc phones beats is more than an eq setting. They have built in amps now for both the speakers and the headset jack.
I've honestly used all of the eq settings on most of my devices but it never compared to actual stock beats settings or how great voodoo sound was for older Samsung devices as well as the og Asus transformer.

The DSP manager in Cyanogenmod worked well for me. I have no desire to own anything that says beats. Just waiting for Dan to release his secret unlock. I use bose qc3's, they're no seinhesier's or AT's but they get the job done.

On my original Nexus 7, the sound chip is very bad, at max volume the sound isn't even medium loud on my headphones.
I use PowerAMP with bass boost and treble boost on (I listen to electro mainly.) How does the new Nexus 7 compare?
Also, can someone compare the new Nexus 7 to S III in sound quality on headphones? Mainly how long each can go? The old nexus is terrible compared to SIII.
The new sound chip is really really good. Like really good. I use similar headphones comfortabley at about 25-35% volume, Clarity is great, good DAC.
i agree as well. i like the new sound chip as i listen to trance. and to add the new speakers and layout work better as well

As stated in the thread you linked, this does not affect headphone output, only the speakers on the tablet's output so it's not entirely relevant to the OP's question.

I'm finding its close to my HTC One coming through the headphones. Won't go quite as loud and clear but it definitely has impressed me. By far better than the first gen nexus 7!
Is the sound good because it's good? Or is the sound good because of how crappy the OG nexus was? The sound is the only thing I hate. Headphones and speakers. Makes me wonder if mine is defective. Or maybe I shouldn't expect more from a budget tablet. Would love to see more opinions.

I find the sound quality through the headphone jack is just average. Kind of muddy to be honest. I thought the original nexus 7 had a better DAC than this new one. Speaker sound is of course better than the original

Don't have it on mine, but I do have a little dust on the upper left corner.
About the topic, I use my own custom made earphones, with superb bass, with AwesomeBeats mod. Works like a charm, though ViperFX also improves sound quality, I'm comfy with AwesomeBeats because its simple. Try any audio mod(requires rooting).
The sound on the 2013 nexus 7 is really good, I mean without headphones on it, it's totally another world from the first gen nexus 7.
