Goodmorning, I just switched my headphones from the "Sennhieser PC373d" to "Sennhieser PC37x".
From what I can tell/ read online, both headphones are pretty much similar, with the main difference being that the 'PC373d' uses a built in sound card in the wire, while my new 'PC37x' just have the regular twinned 3.5mm connections .
I have had my old headset for possible 10 years, so I have never used the headphone/mic jack in a very long time. This is leading up to my current problem:
When I plugged in my new headset, the audio is way worse than my old headset, and i believe its user error not the headphones itself. Since I have used the built in sound card dongle, I may or may not have addition software that may improve the audio quality...
(For example, as a kid I do remember my audio sounding like crap unless i had the software "Realtek" launched.)
Its been way too long, and since i have not used jacks in a long time, im not familar with (if any) software im supposed to be using. I would appreciate any help.
TLDR: Im switching from 10 years of a USB sound dongle headset, a very similar headset that instead uses 3.5mm jacks. My audio sounds horrible, and im not sure if theres any software/drivers I may need
