Windows 10: How to adjust sound quality on Windows 11?

Hi I downloaded a third-party app that allows me to stream movies. I noticed that only when opening the app is the overall sound quality diminished both for the system and the app. Although I can clearly hear everything, it has a hollowed-out quality. I noticed this while playing YouTube videos while the app is open but as soon as I close it, the quality returns to normal. Would be grateful for any insight into why this might be occurring.Thank you.

Microphone Sound Quality

Hello, xodjbgxo,

This tutorial lists several steps on improving sound quality.

Sound Quality

One thing that sticks out from looking at your "My Computer" specs. You list "ONBOARD 6 CHANNEL (5.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO (AS STANDARD)" which suggests you do not have the correct sound hardware driver. Your motherboard has Realtek sound and the first step is to install the Realtek sound drivers. My ASUS also came with Sonic Studio 2 which is a sound enhancement package. Check the ASUS install disc to see if you have something similar.

May not be a speaker problem.

 

Good surround sound headset

I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue
