Thanks everybody for your help. I've come to the conclusion that some audio files I get from Overdrive just have low volume and there's nothing that can be done about it, except use better speakers. I downloaded another audio book last night and the volume is fine on that one. I did change the region to "Rest of the World" and that doesn't help. There is software that lets you play around with audio files and increase the volume, but unfortunately it won't work on audio books with DRM, whether they be MP3 or WMA. I'm using a cheap little portable speaker, I think I'm going to have to invest in something better, just to deal with these low volume audios. I do have a cheap set of plug-in speakers in my sewing room and I can turn the volume way up on those, but my problem is when I want to be portable and listen while in the car....or in the shower! With the shower running I can't even hear the low volume ones.

But then I ask myself....do you really NEED to listen to your book while in the shower? No, I don't need to, but I really enjoy it.
