So /g/, headphone virtualization, yes or no? What exactly does

>>52643128
I tries to use DSP to emulate what sound would be like in a room with speakers.

If you want to get into the technical side of how it does this, it basically adds a bit of crosstalk. It's an old technique in the analog HiFi days for various reasons.

It's kind of a cool effect but it adds a feeling of degraded quality. Like you're suddenly using cheaper headphones.

Uncheck that shit, all audio special effects and what not should all be disabled if you're using headphones

Hmm interesting. Yeah I tried watching some YouTube music videos and switching it on/off. It appears as though headphone virtualization makes things a bit more hollow sounding.


Since we're on the subject of audio, are any of these equalizer presets really worth using? I don't really know how to setup an equalizer to sound good.

What about the full range speaker options? I'd assume full range speakers get a wider range of sounds from the audio chip?

>using realtek software
just let windows install its own sound drivers, and be done with it. Thats all you need.

Windows 10 automatically installs realtek audio drivers now.

no it doesnt. It often times can, and will but on a clean install it does not.

I used to fight with that quite a bit, always unintstalling it everytime it updated it on its own. However, after a clean install, where they were never installed, it hasnt done it.
