Those are usually quite generic based on "High definition audio controller" driver. But if you find in your device manager things like "Audio effects component" and there is a dozen of them, then its usually part of the problem. These are bundled to sound drivers to process the sound through...

Sometimes you may find out that you need a cable for 220v 10 or 15 amps and it the price is within reason (30-50 dollars) it could be even reasonable purchase. Mostly its not.

My girlfriend took me there, and then I just saw it :). Luckily she likes when I take pictures of sceneries when we are on a date :)

I dont want to use SIP gateway, but after I googled it a bit, my ISP/Phone provider does use them. So I was like "no, thank you,". Mostly ISP installs modems/routers to people who are not skilled in IT. Those settings are available on internet in case someone wants to maintain modem/router at...

I would agree, but I live in a capital city of a country :). Also quality of service however depends on location and coverage by network, while ISP sells three packages (cheap/medium/expensive), but based on location you can pay same money for different data rates. Provider did make those...

In october 2021 my provider decided to upgrade to VDSL2 (yes, you are reading the year correctly, there was an active ADSL2 here until 2021), and the phone went dead. When I asked about it, I was told that old line will no longer operate, even when the regional code was B, and there was still...

I have been doing few tests in terms of system speed, but not focusing on performance, but on fluidity (if is that a word). In 3d gaming you would use terms like "stuttering" to describe small, but very visible performance drops in 3d rendering. This is of course a concern for audio, especially...

I do clear up all old unused devices everytime. Later I noticed that GPU switched to x8 speed, so moved the card a bit in slot and it seems to fix the issue - maybe the issue with driver failure is also related. But I am still quite curious why Line-based mode for audio devices is preferred.

This will be slightly more computer/Windows oriented question. Short story: For some time I found information that its good practice to have Audio device set to Line-based mode. Now I even found newly installed device where audio drivers are on purpose set to Line Based mode. What is the...

Been testing WASAPI Exclusive and ASIO for Realtek1220. Results were perfectly identical, plus I checked the endpoints. Incoming data stream was rendered at its original sample rate, the only thing that driver changed in the output is that it used 32bit(padded) format - eg. it was 24bits of...

It was measured from the integrated amplifier's headphones jack, as I was testing it end-to-end. There were some bogus claims that external DAC miraculously solves these problems, while people were unaware this is happenning at SW level in PC + I was testing how resampling affect listening...

Been doing similar tests on Realtek 1220A connected to NAD 3020d V2 over TOSLINK. 1. There was little to no difference between Exclusive and ASIO modes of the driver. FFTs were identical without any distortion caused by Windows. 2. Foobar with WASAPI Shared does deduce 6db + there is a bug...

Nope he did not. Unfortunately the speakers are in the room where ambient temps can be as high as 38°C (about 107 °F) and there is a person who insists there should be direct sunlight in the room, opening blinds when I am not at home, despite its a room filled with expensive electronics.

Speaking of commercially available media (CDs, streams whatever) the answer is no. Speaking of gaming or computer triggered sounds, there is at least possibility.

Been considering to buy a second pair of DBR-62 for a home cinema (just in Stereo setup, maybe single subwoofer), yet I been told that its not a good choice in terms of product longevity. eg. that rubber in the speakers may wear out in some time - probably years, and I should consider different...

Did plenty of cosplay photos recently. Who needs a studio, you need just two tripods, speedlight, umbrella, rgb light and white wall. Character is Carmilla from series Castlevania,
