Yes you can increase the Talks volume over the 10 that is already there. Go into the Talks settings, Press Options, Arrow down to Audio Settings, Press select, Select on Phone speaker. Now go down to the volume factor and change it from 100% to maybe 125% or 150%. You also want to use a different version of Eloquence to see if that helps some.
