I was pretty shocked by the NC's audio output, too, when I first got it a couple years ago. If you plan to root or run a custom ROM (CyanogenMod 10, Android Jellybean, runs great on the NC), you'll be able to boost the audio a bit, but there's only so much you can do. Even output through the headphone jack is weak compared to most phones and mp3 players I've had.

I recently gave away my NC after picking up a Nook HD+, and the speaker output on this thing is much better than the NC, but still inadequate for watching a movie in anything but a silent room :/ It would almost have been worth going with a Kindle 8.9" just for the better speakers, but it is adequate to my one use for the speaker: bedtime audiobooks.
