Hi,
I recently purchased this laptop and wanted to confirm if everyone is experiencing what I am.
The speaker sound is very low, and of terrible quality. It's like the sound is coming from far away kept empty pot.
This is what I did:
1. Reinstalled Windows 8.1.
2. Updated Conexant drivers to the latest.
3. Installed IC Sound - AudioWizard utility and tuned it to max.
Installing ICS software did made some difference - but not that much. The sound is not pure and is distorted if I tune it to deliver maximum sound.
Overall, I am thoroughly disappointed by the sound quality of this laptop. I saved up a lot and finally bought a laptop and this is just not okay. The terrible audio quality is overshadowing every other good thing of this laptop like beautiful IPS display and GTX 950m GPU. My old tinny Inspiron N4010's sound is miles better, clearer, louder and crisper than this and I'm missing that sound A LOT.
If this is just hardware fault I'm thinking of getting it replaced. Hence could anyone please let me know how has their experience been with Asus GL552JX-CN009H.
