|
 |
I've recently reinstalled windows and I'm having a huge problem with the sound system.
What is happening is when I have the speakers set to 5.1 in windows, it plays bass through the tweeters as if its thinking all the speakers are full range, even though in speaker config, I turned that off. So I turn bass up in my soundcard control panel and the speakers get even more distorted. It also happens in 2.1, as I just tested.
As I said I just reinstalled windows, and I have reinstalled the sound card driver, taken it out, reinstalled chipset then reinstalled soundcard and no luck. Is there a configuration option somewhere I can look into? I've looked through all my soundcard options as well as my windows sound options and I'm stumped (and really frustrated)

Cables cross wired ?(wrong plug in the sound card), sounds stupid maybe but i have done it more then twice 
And also make 100% sure that the plugs are really plugged in, that also have happened to me a couple of times.

Wow, you mention that, the R/L plug is half out, plug it in, and its fine.
I feel like a 'tard. |

Sadly, its doing it again - not the connection. I got a reply from auzentech saying they 'fixed distortion' in a previous driver release but that my setup my not have been configured, and they are releasing a new driver in a few days. When that comes out, if its not fixed, it may be a faulty card.

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully the update will fix it.

It's now doing it in and out. I'll restart, won't fix it. I'll wait a little while, it won't do it... I changed the PCI slot it was in, same problem. I think their drivers are just shit right now.
You know the worst part though about having a really high quality sound card and speaker system? If the MP3 rip is not high quality, its hard to know if there is still distortion or not. I have to bust out some telefon tel aviv flac to test it now... which by the way, sounds insane when there is no distortion.
