Windows 10: Audio Echoes Through Headphones

I have had this issue since I first got the Windows 10 update. My audio will have an echo to it when using headphones. I have solved it before by going into the properties of my audio device and turning off enhancements, but I am no longer to access that. I can get to the menu, but the enhancements option is not there. Additionally, I have uninstalled, reinstalled, and checked for updates on my audio drivers to fix it. Just last week I had to uninstall and reinstall them. However, today the issue returned. I want to know how to permanently fix this as I'm tired of doing it every couple weeks. Thank you.

Echo/reverb audio since last update

Hi,

When exactly do you get the sickening echo/reverb effect in the audio?

Does this happen while playing an audio or a video file or on default Windows sound?

Please let us know so that we may assist you better.

I suggest you to roll back the driver from the Device manager by going to sound, controller and device section.

Expand it, locate the audio device and from properties try to update the driver or roll back the driver.

You may restart computer to check if Windows detect it.

• Check your speaker and headphone connections for loose cables or the wrong jack.
• Check your power and volume levels, and try turning all the volume controls up.
• Some speakers and apps have their own volume controls, and you might have to check them all.
• Try connecting using a different USB port.
• And remember that your speakers probably won’t work when headphones are not plugged in properly.

I suggest you to run the audio troubleshooter and check if the issue can be fixed.

• 
  Type troubleshooting in the search bar.
  
• 
  Click view all in the left panel.
  
• 
  Select ‘Playing audio' and follow the on-screen instructions.
  

Hope this helps in resolving the audio issue. We look forward to hear from you.

i would also recommend looking at the Audio Technica m50s if this is your first step into audiophile headphones.

most of the cans you listed will also need an amp to push them.
