Stereo surround and EQ for A1 & A2 users!!!

If you have the latest WDM 0.441(EAX4.0) drivers, give this a try. I just tried this on my A2 oem and it GIVES you stereo surround and a 7 band EQ. (not CMSS) It actually works!:D Click on Speaker Settings and then use the CMSS 3D Selection drop down box and select Stereo Surround. Voila!

WARNING: It seems my mode is permanently set to stereo surround even when I turn it off!:eek:
EDIT: I just switched to 2.1 speaker mode and then back to 4.1. Now it works fine. I can turn stereo surround on/off properly. No problems NOW!

I find the difference is. CMSS2 adds a slight midbass boost over Stereo Surround. You hear more thumpiness. It also draws more attention to the subwoofer on my Z560's. (muddies bass a bit):D

my sub doesn't produce muddy bass :)

maybe that's why i couldn't tell for the brief time i was testing. :)

is more bass necessarily a bad thing though? :)

If it's sloppy, ill-defined, boomy bass, then yes it's a bad thing. (think $300 Sony mini system)

Deep and quick bass is the way to go! Aka. Your Ultra's sub.:D
