Testing 5.1 Surround Sound (Advanced Settings)

If you are using the Sound Blaster X-Fi 3 control panel (Advanced Settings) to test
your headphones/speakers, set up as a 5.1 surround sound system with the micro-
phone jack enabled as the "Center/Subwoofer" (see

) in

the Realtek HD Audio Manager, you may not hear the low Subwoofer test tone as

tions below to obtain an effective sound test.
