The volume is crazy low, too low to be heard...at least on my computer.

Ditto...I've got insane speakers and still on highest it's like a whisper, can imagine normal laptop speakers it would be almost impossible to listen.

Wonderful topic, I was looking forward to this video. Unfortunately, I couldn't hear a thing!

I digitally amplified the sound. Im on my phone right now will double check when i get home.

Edit: Yeah, its good. Sound quality isn't perfect but it should be loud enough to hear :)

The audio was great, I even had to turn it down a bit. I still don't know why a class A player would unnecessarily make his knight defend the f pawn the entire game. Winning as black wouldn't be easy, but it wouldn't be easy for white to draw either. Thanks for making another great lesson! :)

Now I understand why Dennis came booming through my headphones :) In preparation for the usual low volume, I turned up the volume, then boom :)
