Sennheiser hd 598 here too, and I can confirm that 8881 is a fantastic driver for this cans. I think I'll be stuck with it for quite some time. :D

Enjoy this moment you'll never forget. Congrats!

Let the little ones rest, and tomorrow enjoy them a lot ;)

Unofficial-Realtek-UAD-generic-6.0.8867.1

8867 (pal1000) is another driver with very good sound. I love the current series (8863-8867), particularly 8863 is great. 8867 has a nice, clear and well...

Hey Tonio, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Y un saludo desde Cantabria amigo, que al parecer somos vecinos. 2020 te va a traer el regalo más hermoso del mundo. Yo tengo dos hijos y te aseguro...

sygnus21 If I've upset you in any way, I didn't mean to.

Happy Holidays, folks.

By the way, pal1000 has published "Unofficial-Realtek-UAD-generic-6.0.8864.1". As soon as I get a chance, I'll...

Hey sygnus, let me make a pair of observations that can help you to save storage space.



I quote: "FLAC is Free Lossless Audio Codec, which means that there is no loss of quality at all. So,...

What you're saying is normal, since you're looking in the wrong category. You should be looking at Sound, Video and Game controllers -> Realtek High Definition Audio

By the way, I'm very happy...

It is true that the information provided by this thread requires an effort of reading and understanding, which is not necessarily bad. Two months ago, when I first arrived here, I had to spend a...

Good news:

Realtek High Definition Audio 6.0.8862.1 WHQL, from alanfox2000 github page.

Releases . pal1000/Realtek-UAD-generic . GitHub

Excellent sound here. Try it out!

I agree with you, that's three good recommendations.

8851 is probably the best, but it's not 100% WHQL.
8856 is good enough, like the rest of the 885x series, and it's 100% WHQL. Maybe the best...

If we look at the size (16.4 MB), I think that driver is UAD. The console to use is "Realtek Audio Console", from the Microsoft store.

I think you should have installed it via...

We think the same way. That's why, when I see those equalizers with the bars shifted a lot of decibels up or down, I always wonder: What music are they listening to, the original, or the one they've...

Yes, I tried it a while ago and I think 8859 is better than the previous ones. At first I even thought it was competing with 8851, but then listening to chamber orchestra it didn't convince me...

During these weeks, I have been testing drivers for many hours, and the conclusion is very clear: On my system, the best driver to date is 8851, which beats by far the following (and previous) ones....

Alanfox2000, I would like to thank you, I think on behalf of everyone, for the excellent work you do on your github page.

Personally I appreciate it very much, it is very useful...

Yes, my sound scheme is "windows default".

If it helps, I tried to reproduce the problem on my Gigabyte B360M board, but nothing unusual happens. Everything works as expected using 8854 UAD, in any of the speaker modes.

And all this is a consequence of a single person who said something negative to him? I can't believe it. Does anyone know anything else?

Yes, this morning I realized that MoKiChU has been banned and all but one of his posts has been deleted. Included a very interesting post in which he explained how the audio drivers work. Sad day.

Same here. Very happy with the 8854 (gigabyte). Yesterday I listened to music for about 4 hours, and it sounded awesome.

That's good news. I looked at it this morning but I had missed "Gaigabytes".

I just installed it on my Gigabyte board without any problem. Thank you, erpster ;)

8855: A punchy driver, with very clear and well defined sound in all the range.

To begin with, in my system the 8855 sounds clearly louder than the 8851 (I have to lower the volume from 38 to...

Thanks ;)
