Why You Need a USB External Sound Card Adapter to Boost Your PC Sound

Have you ever been trying to listen to music on your computer and have struggled to get the volume, tone, or EQ just right? Yeah, if you’re like us, low quality audio’s a major pet peeve. If you’re a musician or an audiophile, you probably know what good sound is and a laptop computer rarely has it. Thankfully, there’s a USB sound card which plugs into your hub providing you with more ports, including sometimes 3.5mm output, input jacks, and coaxial and optical jacks.

A USB sound card with 7.1 surround sound. Imagine that! It’s a great booster to your computer’s audio quality. Perfectly sized and easy to install, it’s surprisingly powerful for such a little gadget. If your computer’s always pumping out terrible audio, trying to enjoy a movie or listen to music becomes a challenge. This is your way around it. A USB external adapter’s works magic to create a home theater-esque level sound. Years ago, to improve the sound quality, you would have opened up the computer and replaced the internal soundcard to get you there. No longer. Everything’s done externally and it’s as easy as plug-and-play.

Some of the ways in which this USB external 7.1 surround sound adapter is used includes to listen to concerts and music. You can also use it for gaming, if you really want to sink into that in-the-game immersive kind of feeling. Some use it for Skype for business and family, as the external soundcard has audio-out and a microphone input. If you’ve always wondered what your computer would sound like in a 7.1 channel environment, this is the cheapest and fastest way upgrading this aspect of your audio experience. You also have volume controls right on the adapter which means adjusting it is as easy as reaching over and thumbing up or down.

You can use this to connect headphones into or a home theater system’s worth of speakers, subwoofers, and more. In terms of trying to find a way around normal computer jacks and determining how to create a 7.1 surround sound audio experience from scratch, this solves a headache. A USB external soundcard like this means you can buy the surround sound system you’ve always wanted to have and connecting it to your laptop or computer becomes so simplified that it’s no different from connecting it to your TV. Your sound will come out crisper, clearer, and louder than before, regardless of whether you’ve got headphones sitting on your head or are on the couch surrounded by 7.1 channel speakers.

Are you looking to upgrade your computer audio? Do it today with a high quality USB external sound card adapter from PrimeCables!

15% off Pro Audio Cables for June 2019 PrimeCables Birthday Sale

In the world of audio cables, there’s no shortage of options on how to equip your home entertainment system with sound. Outside of selecting the right speaker system or soundbar to use, audio cables play a key role in the quality of sound you receive. Even with the most high quality speaker there is, if you don’t have the right audio cable to pair it with, it could very well sound terrible.

 

There are several possible audio cable options in the PrimeCables catalogue, including HDMI cables which are ideal for both video and audio. Many Canadian households will choose HDMI cables as their audio cable and there’s nothing wrong with this. That said, HDMI cables are probably more advantageous to households with a high value on video quality. For upgraded audio, you may choose to go through another method.
