There are a couple of various things you can do

-You could re-download a better-spec version of the (video) file that has better audio

-You could also convert the audio portion of your current file using avidemux or handbrake to a different codec, which is what I do sometimes. Rule of thought is you make the new audio version a bigger size if you're increasing the volume.
