Rocketkiller Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I have a set of Logitech z-640 5.1 speakers and a soundblaster live 5.1 card. My problem is the volume of the back speakers is really strange, when the volume is quiet the back speakers make almost no sound, when I turn it up they become louder than the fronts. I used the Surround Mixer program to test the speakers. What's the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waste Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 You might have EAX on or something similiar. Sound Blaster cards come with a program on the driver disc that can control the volume of each speaker separatly as well. Look under Start >> All Programs >> Creative >> Sound Blaster >> Creative Surround Mixer. Check to make sure you don't have EAX on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketkiller Posted April 18, 2005 Author Share Posted April 18, 2005 EAX is all off, and the fader in the Surround Mixer pretty much moves all the sound to the bcak if you move it one pixel to the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waste Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Strange. The fader thing works correctly on mine. I have the Logitech X-530's and the Sound Blaster Live! 5.1, so it shouldn't be much difference. Actually, my back speakers are a little quiet. What are you trying to play? Music or a DVD?

Atomic Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Tried pressing that little matrix button? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketkiller Posted April 20, 2005 Author Share Posted April 20, 2005 Any sound is quiet 5.1 or stereo, and the matrix just blends the front side speakers into the center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
