What are you using to play them?

That's the one I use.

You can increase the master gain level in options. AC3 is like that by design.

How many speakers are you playing on? I find it very quiet most of the time anyway regardless of set up as said up the gain and there are also some good settings to play with in Media Player Classic and VLC if you're willing to give them a go.
