How To Set Up My Speakers In My Room.

[dann2707]

Hey. Basically at the moment i'm running some logitech Z-5500's, well I have been for about 4 years now and they are so good for what I payed for them.

They are hooked up to the computer through a soundcard, using the black, orange and green cables for surround sound, on an Asus Xonar DG if that makes any difference

I can vary how much sound comes through the Sub, centre and rear speakers on the control dock in front of me. These are currently turned up to full on all 3.

However on the soundcard I can also change the settings, for where the sound comes out...

At the moment the sound is about right on the very first notch on the control dock, but if I go onto the next one its pretty loud!

What I was looking to do, was change it so I vary the sound a bit more rather than it going from quiet to LOUD just like that.

How would you go about it? Leave the settings on the control dock and change it on windows or whatttt?

Cheers.

Just turn it down on that big round dial above SVN and Mute?

The Z-5500's are the bomb!

Depending on what im doing on my control panel:

Music-

volume +3 about 4-5 bars

Sub max

Centre 60%

Surround about 80%

Movie-

Sub 80%

Centre max

Surround 80%

Just what ever i usually bang it onto 6channel input.
