Nagging Sensations and Sound Update
Added 2018-01-08 20:07:09 +0000 UTC So to troubleshoot further, I ordered a USB headphone jack to see if its just the headphone jacks going bad or not. What's confirming my suspicions that it could be the motherboard is that both headphone jacks on the front and back of the computer are equally bad in terms of the muffled+slight reverb going on.
Before anyone assumes its the presets in Realtek HD Audio Manager, its most certainly not since I have everything at default right now. I don't know if I stressed that enough in the last journal.
Another thing people were telling me that it could just be me which its most certainly not since its the same sound quality when using speakers instead since its also connecting to the headphone jacks and I had my brother and father listen to the differences and they confirm its definitely the computer.
I know I use my headphones a lot but I know hardware failure when I see it.
If its still just as bad with a USB extension then its time to look into a temporary sound card and troubleshoot with that. If it boils down to the motherboard itself which im already guessing it ill be, I'll need to save up what I can to replace it. Maybe make room for new commissions in due time.
Last note regarding the title if anyone's reading at this point is; do you guys ever get this nagging sensation in your chest/head that something should doesn't feel quite right. Maybe you're listening to something in a video or the radio and there's a random nagging feeling you get that you can't shake off some reason and you don't know what it is.
Kind of a random thing that's been with me for years and I can't pinpoint how to describe it or know what causes it.
