It probably has to do with your import settings. I have an XL1s and use Adobe Premiere. What are your default quality settings for importing? I don't use Movie Maker and would not recommend it. If you had the money for an XL2, please invest in a decent non-linear editor. Your overall quality is only as good as your weakest tool, and in this case it's Movie Maker.

Did you listen in the headphones while you were shooting? Could you hear it then? What mic were you using? How/where was it plugged in? Did you have the Phantom Power on? How was the camera set to record audio? Does the audio play back on the camera?
