| I have an Audigy SE sound card; with the latest drivers. It works ok with my 5.1 speakers, also ok in stereo mode with any stereo speakers but, when i use the i wear usb sound it only does cranking sounds when playing, i tryed the VR920 in the integrated sound card of a friend and worked ok whithout installing ant drivers, just plug and play, what is going on?

| When using the speakers built into the VR920, you are no longer actually using your soundcard/soundcard drivers. They are disabled. Since you have such a nice soundcard, much nicer than anything we have on our test systems here, it may be a situation where the drivers are not letting go of control easily. Make sure you go through your sound properties, and are no longer using that device. If it is showing up as being used for anything, that may be the cause of your issues.
Of course, if I had a 5.1 sound setup on my gaming system, I'd yank the speakers right out of the VR920, and bask in surround sound and stereo graphics. And, most likely, lose my job because I would miss several weeks of work.

| | Yes; i like too the 5.1, the first i tryed was looking in the sound control panel, there, the audigy sound card was replaced by vr920 sound, if i select audigy, i hear normally through the speakers, but with vr920 the sound crancks through the earbuds, no understandable sound. |

| Here's another thought . . . the fidelity of our speakers is likely much lower than the fidelity of your normal speakers . . . is it possible that you have volumes set too high? This could cause distortion in the VR920 speakers. Take a look at that, and if it doesn't help, we'll send you a couple new speakers. If those don't do the trick, we can bring it in to take a look at it. Let me know how the testing goes by emailing me at the address in my sig file.

| i´ll try the volume thing; but its not the speakers, the sounded very good in my friends integrated soundcard.
It seems to be some kind of driver incompatibility i think. |

| | Also, when in VR920 sound selected in sound control panel, all the volume and speaker settings get greyed and cant change them. |

| Thak you very much; by lowering the sound to almost nothing before changing to VR920 it worked.
There still were some crancking but it disappeared by deactivating eax low frequency boosts. |
