The selection is in the volume menu. Just right click on it and select your output device.

This seems to be incredibly subjective. This really depends on HOW much better, and what they're willing to pay for. I mean, I know an audiophile who can design, build, and setup the entire room with properly proportioned surround sound with speakers that have a "true to sound" quality for several thousand, but something tells me that isn't what you're looking for.

LOL... audiophile and surround sound don't go together

@scottalanmiller
Then I've proven the audiophile is not me

@FiyaFly Yeah, surround sound and audiophiles don't mix well, lol. Too much DSP
@bishnitro What kind of budget were you looking to stay within? Do you want something self-powered, or something that needs an amplifier? How big is the room you're looking to use them in? Are you going to be playing music, movies, or presentations? If you can answer these, we'll have a better idea of how to help you.

I'd be interested in a write up if you're willing @scottalanmiller. Something I've wanted to learn about for awhile

@Mike-Ralston builds speakers in his spare time as well. You do the right amount of persuasion I figure he could probably teach you anything you want to know on the subject

@FiyaFly Funnily enough, I JUST made a post about my most recent pair in the "What Are You Doing Right Now" thread.

I don't think I agree with that - but I'd have to check definitions to be sure... If you're a movie audiophile... I'd think you'd want surround more.. if you're a music audiophile.. then heck.. mono might be best.. but stereo is the norm.

Well movie + audiophile don't go together. Movie sound is effect based, not accurate reproduction based. Surround is for cinemaphiles, not audiophiles. Surround sound is the enemy of good sound. Things like subwoofers and center channels have no place in audiophilia. You can do audiophile surround sound, but it's 4.0 only. Any number of channels over 4 is a gimmick that lowers sound quality.

I'd agree with @scottalanmiller on this one. I've got a 5.1 at home that sounds great. Still, any surround sound system has to modify the original signal.

So does stereo.
I have no idea how they record 5.1, 7.1, etc audio tracks, or if it's all faked in some way..

If you don't have a screen to blast through, drop that center channel and your sound quality instantly improves. That center channel thing is the bane of sound quality.

Stereo is not (necessarily.) Stereo is recorded with two microphones and each channel is played from the original source (on good recordings.) There is no recording mechanism or even concept for more than two channels (because we only have to two ears) and the idea of more channels, especially the point channels, is that they are not for reproduction but for sound effects.

the problem with that is that most media have a dedicated center channel for dialog. Without that dialog can get muddled or lost.
