Hello, I'm having an issue with my new set of cans, They sound a bit quiet and the audio is crackly and hisses on loud parts of the music. Also, the vocals in music sound far away and barely audible, as if I'm hearing them through several walls. At some points, I can't hear the singer at all.
My old pair of headphones, a cheap pair of Sony's MDR ZX100s sound perfect when I plug them back in.
I'm using the front headphone jack of my PC. I've read that these headphones shouldn't really need an external DAC or anything, and my motherboard's onboard audio should suffice to power them. If it helps, my motherboard is MSI's Z-170 A PRO.
I had updated to the latest version of Realtek's audio drivers, and have played around with the audio manager, to little avail.
At this point, I think I received a bad set of cans, and am considering RMA'ing them.
Does anyone have an idea what it could be?
