hey people
Today I was listening to music in my PC when a very irritating problem started:
Suddenly the sound started to go "muffled". You barely can listen to voices.
My sound card has a few settings for some sort of "effects" on the audio but those were disabled by me.
My sound card is a Sound III (Aztech).
Is it time for new speakers?
Thanks

hmm hard to say. i assume you have amplified speakers ? what you should do is first plug in a head set using the same output as you are now for the speakers. if the sound is ok then you know its speakers ! other wise use some of your money and buy a new sound card.

You will have to try another set of speakers or a sound card to determine where the fault is. Or, try the speakers on another computer.

Solved it by moving the speaker' cable. I think there was a short or something...

I had the same problem with my first computer.I discovered it was the poor quality of the ac-97 onboard audio.Bought a soundblaster 128,a QDI advance 9 and a voodoo 3 3000 (state-of-the-art components, then).

If this was onboard audio.. but no, it's a good old ISA sound card - great for MS-DOS programs. The audio quality is not the best, but very good, considering I got the card for very cheap (to replace a Rockwell sound card that was bad).
