Asus Xonar DG questions

I have an Asus Xonar DG soundcard, and I've had a strange experience with it.

When playing music (or just about any sound) it sounds significantly better when the equaliser is set to "Soft rock".

I've tested this with all kinds of music, voices and games, and using my "bad" headset and my "good" headphones. The results were always the same.

This isn't an issue, but I was wondering if anyone else has found this. If you have please share your experiences :)

Many thanks, FizzyFantom

Whether it sounds good or not is entirely subjective. I personally found it to nerf the mid range a bit too much for my liking. By boosting the highs, it might sound "artificially" clearer.

I've searched around and some other people seem to think this as well. I feel that the mids overpower the other sounds on default, so I'm going to tinker until I find a setting I like :)

I have the same card and mine is also set to 'soft rock'. For me that's the best sounding, im using an old pair of Turtle Beach X12's. I really like the Xonar, for me it was a great buy.
