Guys I'm very new to this forum and I tried to do a little searching but coudn't find a similar thread.
I just bought a Senn PC-161 headset and all the reviews I read said it will sound amazing so I had some pretty high expectations!
I recieved it yesterday and I plugged it into my integrated audio card (3.5mm connector to the back) and it sounded very weak and tinny. I had my volume turned all the way up on my headphones and in my system tray.
1. You think maybe the headphones I received are defective or do you think it can be my crappy integrated sound?
2. Can a cheap integrated sound card actually make a good headset sound that bad?
3. I tested a USB headset before and it sounded very powerful and loud. Why is there a difference?
4. Is there a fix? I guess I can just go back to the USB headset but the Senns are supposed to be much better, I just wanted to experience them before I return.
Thanks in advance for the help. Sorry if this is a redundant thread.
