Hi everyone, We have a brand new Samsung blu-ray home theater system. We just set it up about 2 weeks ago and over the past few days, we've noticed that the front right speaker is not working. I know that different TV shows and movies have different sound settings and different speakers will...

I've been looking to buy speakers for my TV but I'm uncertain on which type of speakers to buy. It seems as if certain speakers are made for TV environment meanwhile these kind of small speakers are made for person computer space. I found this after a while of searching, and it seem to fit all...

I am very uneducated about a lot of audio related technology, I bought a year ago a set of Turtle Beach px22's and they came with an external sound card (I think that's what its called). They headset broke and I recently purchased some Kingston HyperX Cloud II's which also come with an external...

Is it at all possible to use a set of 2.1 speakers simultaneously to a 5.1 surround sound set? The ones i currently have are decent but don't provide the volume and bass I'd like. Firstly, seen as Im using a desktop PC, would I be able to get a Aux splitter for the 2 systems to play sounds at...

Hello, We just purchased a home with 4 built-in speakers (front right & left, back right and left). I'm going to be purchasing a center channel and have a sub as well. I've wired speakers before but I'm stumped with how the current setup is working. Rather than your typical Red and Black...

As above yesterday I purchased H2100 to replace my ageing Plantronics 780's. No stupidly I presumed it would just be a case of unboxing, attaching the dongle, charging the headset and off I go. Wrong. Firstly my system specs are as follows: Windows 10 Home 64-bit RAMPAGE V EXTREME i7 5820K...

I know there are quite a few threads on this but I'm starting this one because all of the solutions on the others don't work. I have the Razer Tiamat 7.1 and the surround sound mode sounds extremely flat, tinny and empty. Thing is, the sub does work in the mode because when I move the knob I can...

Every time I turn on my PC I always have to turn on my 7.1 on the USB. It turns off by itself when I turn my PC and its kind of getting annoying. Does anybody else have to turn it one every time you turn on the computer? Is my headset defective?

I have some headphones and a 5:1 surround sound system connected to my computer. I have it set up so skype and such programs play through my headphones, and music plays through my surround sound. How would i make it so i can play music through my headphones and not through the optical output...

So I'm going to start right off by saying I am a complete noob when it comes to computer peripherals such as sound. Now to the good stuff. I have a custom PC I put together a few years ago and have recently took it along with my Xbone and monitor to college. I received an LG 5.1 home theater...

Okay. I'm currently using a sound card which I bought so I could get 5.1 surround sound on my headphones. However, I decided that I should buy an optical cable to be able to play on my TV and get 5.1 surround sound out of my receiver. The sound card model I have is this: Creative Sound Blaster Z...

I've tried midi setup and can only configure 2 speakers not 5. I can get virtual surround sound, but not true surround sound. All the threads say use hdmi cable, but my receiver doesn't have an hdmi in (Samsung). Is there a solution? (Separately, I'm putting movies onto a flash drive, and...
