Is it just me or the overall loudness at max volume is decreased with these drivers..?

 

Max volume seems improved on my G74 , but actually i don't like thoses drivers that much : using the settings given on the youtube video , the sound is a bit better while playing on speakers , but become AWEFULL when playing with a headset.

As i only use my speakers for ty lolcat youtube vidz or beep beep on Facebook, i don't find them really usefull. Only Sonic Focus settings improved sound a bit ( well , offering new possibilities ) , but i disabled SRS AND dolby to have something proper to my ears ..

Maybe there's something wrong on my settings , but using the SRS settings given , it sounds horrible.

 

It is the same for me, more than enough for the daily use like watching movies. The maximum volume is getting a bit louder though if you enable Sonic Focus.

Well it should be obvious that you can't use the speaker specific settings for your headset which is working in a total different way. The inbuilt speakers are using probably a simple frequency-separating filter which is not really working well without the shown SRS settings in my video. I personally disable also SRS when I use my headset and only make some fine tuning with the Windows equalizier.

 

thanks for this. visited the creators website. he has updated drivers you tried them yet? newest one is 2.71 c but i dont think that will work with the g73jh. 6.-Realtek MOD 2.71b Win7 - 8 x64

Can you give me a link to the updated drivers?

 

Hmm, I cannot seem to get SRS to work. I get the message: SRS is temporary inactive to give you the best performance with the following software. To activate SRS, delete the software below, and restart the system (loosely translated from dutch):

Creative X-Fi MB Software Suite.

Any ideas how to fix this? I am on Windows 8 with a G73JH.

By the way, if you are like me, and get the " 0xE000024B" error during installation, follow the following guide (found here):

 

sure here you go
