Other properly recorded music is now near perfect, near holographic with voices darn good. It's better now and playing CD's with similar distortion from the Technics SC-C70MkII All-in-one Music system that's in the kitchen: some have horrible distortion, like it is clipping with complex/loud music. It kept on wanting to use spatial sound and dolby. Using total uninstall I managed to get rid of the original one and the manually load the RealTek Asio driver. On the contrary he is mostly seen as a highly respected engineer.įocusRite has its own USB drivers but somehow Windows is in there and wants to use Dolby Laptop is further fine and I'm loath to send it in for a service as often the chaps here work without antistatic procedures which makes for later early failure.Īnyway when trying earlier to load the RealTek Asio driver it kept on reverting to the default one that Lenovo included. Putzeys is not usually considered a snake oil salesman around here in the forum. IIRC Bruno Putzeys' Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC listed for $13,400 USD a couple of years ago.
Exceptionally good sounding dacs may easily cost between $5k and $15k. Even the best Topping isn't as good as it gets when played back on a high end stereo. Moreover, the dac inside a laptop sound card is usually cheap junk as compared to good Topping dac. In that case there might be some other troubleshooting to do.
How bad is the distortion you are hearing? Is it only from the Realtek internal sound card? Maybe there is a warranty problem with the computer? Are you taking analog audio from the headphone jack? If so, into what external device?Īlso, sometimes there can be a problem with ground conducted noise from an SMPS inside a computer. Doesn't the Focusrite have WASAPI Exclusive Mode drivers?Īlso, ordinarily Windows Sound Engine does not distort badly, but on a good dac one can hear it.
