(Combined my other thread into one post)
First of all, I'd like to know why computers randomly change settings after being unplugged and plugged back in. My friend unplugged her computer for a week, plugged it back in and had no internet.
I unplugged my computer for a week, plug it back in and have no treble. Only bass coming out of my Klipsch 5.1 Ultras.
Well I just downloaded and installed the latest drivers for my audigy 2, and still no treble. I've checked and double checked the hookups. The orange, green, and black wires are running from the Audigy to the sub, and the 5 sets of speaker wire are running from the sub to the speakers. I made sure red to red, black to black. The power is plugged in (obviously, as I am getting bass), and the volume control is plugged into the sub. Volume's up, Rear, Center, and Sub are all set to 0 (even). In the dumb little Creative Volume Control, I've got it set as 5.1 speakers, no digital output, 100% volume up on everything, 50% treble, 50% bass.
In fact, I can put the orange (center/sub), black (rear), and green (front) wires in any order or combination, and it always produces bass. For example, I can hook the green wire from the "front" on the audigy to the "rear" on the sub, and it still just puts out bass somehow. You'd think that would put the front signal out the rear speakers at least. So no matter how I connect it, it's always producing bass and only bass. I'm about ready to bust out the credit card and order some new speakers/sound card if nobody has any ideas. I can't be on a computer without sound. And I have no idea how to fix this because I have no idea what even caused it or what the problem exactly is. =
I just plugged in some headphones to the Klipsch volume control hub and I got treble. So the sound card has to be putting out treble properly. This means the problem is at the speakers or the sub. How could all 5 speakers break at once though? That leads me to believe that something in the sub broke, where the speaker wires plug in at perhaps.
Well I just hooked one of the satellites up to my home stereo. Sound comes out just fine, so the speakers themselves are fine as I suspected. The problem has to be in the sub. Anything suggestions or do I have to get another?
