Hi, my microphone on corsair h2100 7.1 dolby surround has a problem, when i was talking on skype or when i was recording using my microphone, the sound, my voice, was very quiet and sounded very muffled. Is there any way to fix this?

I am having trouble finding a gaming headset with great 7.1 surround sound that is under $100. I need a headset that could help me pinpoint where sounds come from and hear footsteps. The headset also needs a mic that is audible in-game. When recommending headsets, experience is preferred. Thank you!

I was browsing for a gaming headset online and I found two headsets that have great reviews about them, and I cannot choose between them. Which is better in terms of their 7.1 surround sound capability, like hearing footsteps and sound positioning? As for the microphone quality, as long it is...

Hi All, I'm experiencing a very strange issue with my HDTV (LG 42LB5610) and new soundbar (LG LAS350B). Okay, first the issue itself, and then the circumstances how it shows up: The issue: Audio output via optical cable from TV sounds... incorrect. I don't know how to describe it best --...

Mine is a similar problem to the one I read in an older thread which is now inactive. I have a Philips TV. It's sound system is Dolby Digital AC3. It's only sound output for connecting to my old Denon Receiver is Digital Coaxial Audio (for an S/PDIF cord). My Denon only has sound input via...

I made the mistake of blindly buying a laptop because its features(large 17" screen, dolby surround sound,4g's RAM,570g HDD,stylish look) but unfortunately this laptop has never been a speed monster? It is a HP pavillion G7 -2323dx and has a AMD A8 4500M CPU, AMD Radeon HD 7640G GPU and built...

I've got some questions regarding how Dolby Digital Live works. I guess the easiest way would be for me to explain my current setup. Hold onto your hats. ;) I have a windows 8.1 desktop with a GTX 660ti GPU and a MOBO with on-board audio. I also have a computer monitor, AVR and HDTV. I have...

Hello guys, Some days ago I bought Corsair H2100 headsets, and the surround and audio quality was really good but the downside of the headset was that it has a really bad microphone, my friends could barely hear me on Skype etc. I decided to change it to a Razer Kraken 7.1 Chroma. So the...

So I'm probably going to order a Razer Leviathan soon due to me getting some free cash(Sidenote: Yes, I know theres better sound systems out there). So it comes with a 3.5mm auxiliary input as well as optical. My computer doesn't have an optical input so my question is will it use the on board...

I recently acquired a set of logitec Z506 5.1 surround speakers. I have an MSI 970 Gaming motherboard and am using the onboard audio. How do I set this up properly? I've noticed it's never truly surround for anything I do at all. But when I run the windows test all 5 speakers plus the sub work.

I asked a similar question a week ago, but got no response. Here is a rephrase... If I have a motherboard with an SPDIF output, and I have a PCI-E soundcard with an SPDIF output and a much better signal-to-noise ratio, will I get better audio from the soundcard or will the two be identical?

Hello all, I have a gaming rig that I plan to expand for use as a home theater PC, and I am having some trouble picking a soundcard. If I could find an inexpensive 5.1 speaker set with an SPDIF input, it would solve all my problems. However, the only similar thread I've found was from...

On all the websites I've looked at it doesn't say if its 7.1 or not. Is it dolby 7.1?

1. When a 5.1 Dolby Pro logic II Home theater player plays a 5.1 Dolby Digital DVDs, is the result same as in Dolby Digital player? If not, why? because the 6 channels in Dolby Digital DVDs are discrete so the Pro logic II player will not have to do any approximation! 2. Can a 5.1 Dolby Digital...
