In most cases people who complained turned out to have either connected a good set of speakers to the onboard-soundchip or a crappy soundsetup to a good soundcard or even a mixture of both.
I'm not saying the Medusa is bad - I got one myself - but it's taking compromises on all sides. |
Hmm I don't see where I said I was hearing wind below 50hz... in any case, chances are you'll only hear a slim wind *humm* because IL2 sounds are most likely cut off (or sound is severely dampened) at frequencies < 50hz. It's not a big deal really, you are not losing much in the frequency band. Either you don't know much about sound and you just wanted to sound as if you did or it's you who should really visit a specialist if ~ 30hz make such a difference to you
As for soundcards/speakers etc... bad speakers have a bigger impact than a "crappy" onboard soundchip. As in... several orders of magnitude. Sound setup (stereo, 2.1 etc) should make no difference since that doesn't affect the sound quality in itself.
