Bass Volume Booster Chrome extension

Bass Volume Booster raises the volume of individual browser tabs beyond normal limits and adds a bass boost and equalizer, popping up as a per-tab slider. It's best for people who find videos or music too quiet on sites like YouTube. The catch: pushing volume far past normal levels can distort audio or strain speakers and headphones.

  • setting a different volume level for each open tab
  • listening to music or videos that sound too quiet at max system volume

What Bass Volume Booster does

Bass Volume Booster adds a slider that raises the volume of an individual browser tab beyond your system's normal maximum, plus a bass boost and equalizer for shaping the sound. A popup lists every tab currently playing audio, so you can adjust one tab's level, such as a YouTube video, without changing the volume of other tabs or your whole system.

Bass Volume Booster free vs paid

The extension is free to install from the Chrome Web Store, with its volume boost, bass boost, and equalizer features available without a separate paid tier described in the listing.

Is Bass Volume Booster safe?

To control audio on any page you're viewing, the extension needs permission to access audio and run on all sites, which is required for a tab-based volume booster to work anywhere you browse. Pushing volume and bass well past normal levels can also distort sound or strain speakers and headphones, so raise levels gradually.
