Ok so a few days ago I got the notion to refresh my 2012 gamer since it stores my music and photos. It was running sluggish and I was able to get it perked back up by deleting stuff I didn't use and turning off a bunch of junk at start up.
Happy with results I figured why not buy some better sounding sattelites as the ones with the subwoofer were just too boomy.
They arrived today and I was so looking forward to the crisp sound of my new speakers. Plug 'em in and turn on the music player and……what is this crap? These things sound like $5 speakers. Seriously? Reviews said they sound great. Man!! So I was about to box them up but decided to plug them to my mp3 player and holy crap these things sound AWESOME!!
Whathehell is the deal with the sound from the laptop?
Between the windows media player equilizer and the "realtek hd" equilizer and it's sound effects synthisizer I have it sounding decent. Better than the old satellites anyway. Some tunes sound great. But like in the old days when my home stereo had a dual 10 band equilizer I'd spend hours trying to tweak 1khz and 125 hz to get rid of the boomy sound but still get the voices right. I'm close now but until today I had no idea how awful my laptop's audio software was.
