Subject: HDA Codec: Soundmax ADI AD1988 x Realtek ALC889
Date: Mon, 12 Apr 2010 11:22:37 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <dumb97-2uc.ln1@tux.abusar.org.br> (raw)

	I upgraded my system from a Asus M2N-E (Soundmax AD1988 codec)
motherboard to MSI X58 Pro-E (Realtek ALC889 codec).

	The problem is that I feel the sound worst than before. I feel
lack of bass and treble. With AD1988 the sound was more "vivid", there
was more bass and treble. With ALC889 it is "flat".

	The only advantage I noticed on ALC889 is the possibility of
mixing multiple sounds at hardware level, what was impossible on AD1988.

	So, what are your opinion? 

	Ps: I used on both the analog output with a Edifier E3100 2.1
speaker system.

	Ps2: could be a problem with a bad quality DAC of the
Realtek ALC889?
