7.1 Surround Sound PC Configuring

[PornMaster]

So I bought the steelseries 7h headset mentioned in the other thread.

I have been trying to configure the surround sound to sound properly. It seems to echo a lot while watching videos or playing music.

I have tried fiddling with the software it came with but it seems the same even when I change it to 2 channels

Make sure you turn off your onboard sound on your motherboard on your device manager? Enable your sound card instead.

I use my soundcard for speakers and such, but the headphones came with a usb sound card.

I think it turns off the onboard sound already because speakers do not work when i put in the usb dongle

fixed problem, the settings on the mixer was set to some generic equalizer that made it echo

how much are normal 5.1 speakers cost?

google around,

I got a sweet deal on the steelseries 7h which is 7.1 surround
