Finially what CPU do you have?

What Chipset are you using? You can get this information by giving me the name of your motherboard. Seems to me like you don't have enough bandwidth and you have disabled certain cards but it should only lower the speed when return to normal when the sound card was removed as your chipset may...

Thanks! The speakers quite a old model, its a denon sc-m2, its probably obsolete by now. And I agree, tweeters don't normally just "Blow", I wonder if there was a short? or maybe a cross between another wire? Thanks loads!

UPDATE #2: Speakers working fine! Unfortunately, the tweeter driver has blown, but at least the woofer still works. For anyone who has this issue, to see if its the tweeter simply put your hand over it whilst its playing and then take it off, you should hear a difference in sound if it works and...

UPDATE: Speaker works fine but I think the tweeter may have blown or the new solder joint caught on the foam...

Hi there, Today I repaired a speaker, the positive wire had just came out so I re-soldered it back together. It worked fine for about five minutes and then a massive squealing noise came from the speaker followed by smoke pouring out of the tweeter. Is there a short in the wiring or has the...

Out of the main board.

Thanks! Ill just bypass the PC instead. Thank you for the info on true and fake surround sound, that helped me ALOT!

Thanks a lot! That really helped! Is there anyway to get "True surround sound" from my pc?

Thanks for the reply! Just play it on speakers. I have noticed that my codec turns 2.1 stereo into 7.1 surround sound whilst playing 2.1 music. Will this be the same story with the line-in?

Hi there, I've always wondered this really. How can I get a 7.1 surround sound from my xbox one into my PC. It has a 7.1 Surround sound codec but it only has a analog line-in. It does have two digital SPDIF and Coaxial but they're only output I think. Will the standard line-in support this? Thanks!

Thanks! Found out that the positive wire on the woofer has somehow came out so a simple re-solder. But just a quick question. The woofer used the red and black wires and the tweeter used the green and blue wires for negative and positive but there was one wire that wasn't soldered onto the board...

Thanks! So directly connect a wire from the input jack at the back to the speaker.

Hi there, I have received some speakers today and the first time I plugged them in the woofer on the left speaker wasn't working but the tweeter was. The woofer wasn't moving or creating any signs of life. If I am right, its either: The speaker driver has blown There is a loose or faulty...
