After having a DV7-6150 for a couple of years the one thing that was really amazing was the sound quality. Yesterday I purchased an HP Envy 17-j130. Considering this was an Envy laptop I expected the sound qualtity to be even better, yet I've come to fnd it's muh worse.
It just sounds very high piched as if the subwoofers aren't even activated. I tried installing the latest drivers but that didn't help either. After spending some time with the beats equaliser I managed to get the sound sounding OK with headphones on. However, the sound via the speakers is still extremely disappointing. It's like listening to a small, old handheld radio.
I also noticed the volume not being stable.
Is this a known problem and can it be fixed?
