So in a few words, my headphones sound off, and the bass if hollow. They sound fine when plugged into my phone, and my laptops on board speakers sound fine too. I having a sneaking suspicion it has to do with Realtek Audio. Anyway to fix it?
Edit: The headphones are Astros and Beats. Both have the issue when plugged into my laptop.
