Long time user of OC - built this PC with it..phew back in 2010 or so, and thought you talented guys and girls could help out. I currently have a two monitor setup- one BenQGL2450, and another 'Television' monitor. Issue: -Television 'monitor' is being used for audio, but is VERY tinny. -Found...

New the PC Building game. It's really fun picking all the parts out yourself. One question. I currently have an Pioneer AV Receiver with 5.1 speakers. My Xbox and Switch run on different HDMI INs and then HDMI out to my TV. I'd simply like to add my PC but it's proving a head scratcher. Once...

Hi All, Is there a good free piece of software that can determine the correct audio drivers i need to download? TIA

I have an ongoing problem with my PC where the game audio will drop out every so often for around a second or two then come back as if nothing happened. Sometimes the pause or loss of audio is very brief sometimes it is longer but usually always in the range of 1-2 seconds. It can happen in any...

Afternoon all, I'm after a new set of headphones or a headset. Price range is up to about £100. I don't mind if they're wireless but wired is preferred. I'm pretty out of the loop when it comes to audio and what to look out for so I'm not really sure what's good and what's a gimmick *cough*...

Hi all, as title says i bought a soundblaster z soundcard, set it all up, works fine while the pc is on, but whenever i shut down and turn the pc back on the driver has magically gone/uninstalled, so far iv tried: *installing the latest win10 driver *disabling all other drivers for sound...

First of all! Hi! I'm new on here so be kind! I'll explain a few things first to make it easier for you guys to help! I have had a gaming pc I built nearly 3 years ago. I have purchased a Sony HT-RT3 5.1 Soundbar Set to accompany my games, I have used headsets and just don't get on with them...

Anyone got a ZXR? Reviews are all pretty positive, but it's a lot of beans to invest into sound. Been regretting getting rid of my Asus STX for a while now so looking to claw back my quality sound. Looking for opinions or short reviews. Eventually if I grab a ZXR it'd be driving 600ohm...

Hi, I've recently started having issues with my sound, whenever i restart boot up my PC i have a constant crackling sound. The only fix i'm aware of is changing the playback from the default S/PDIF Pass-through device to say, my speakers and back to the default again, if i do this straight away...

Hi all, My Corsair SP2500's recently decided to give out (returning from holiday and they struggle to play any audio - after some research it appears to be an unfortunate design fault with the PSU.) I'm interested in buying some speakers for my desktop which are of similar/better quality...

Hi, i've upgraded my graphics card to 1080ti. Since then i have not been able to listen to my on-board audio/external speakers. I have tried so many different things, reinstalling, updating reinstalling my OS. I'm just worried that perhaps my ports aren't working anymore for audio as the...

Hi all, I own a pair of audio engine a5+ and like most, love them. However after a recent purchase of 2 27" monitors I under-estimated how much desk space they would take up. I'm looking at putting the speakers on a floating shelf to free up some room on my desk for my PC and have a couple of...

So i have my own flat and i've decided to network every room with 4 network points each. I then plan to run HDMI over Rt45. So i can have a super computer in my front room and have the picture running on different screens about the flat. Now this isn't a problem because the graphics card has 5...

Hi all, I am looking at buying a MacBook to record music. It'll be fairly basic guitar, vocals, piano, etc. No EDM yet! What do you guys/girls recommend? I'm not looking to break the bank on the latest, top of the range model - I'm fine with second hand/refurbished. Cheers!

Hello, I like listening to music at high volumes. My pc setup used to be : PC>A/V>TV all though HDMI. This provided a nice signal to my A/V receiver, A Sony DA2400ES. I upgraded my TV, to a 4K tv (Phillips 43PUS6101/12 ), since my AV amp doesn't support 4k it goes : PC>TV>A/V, with audio...
