It has made me question how much effect the laptop has on the sound.


Can anyone please explain to me what is going on? What extra enhancement is being removed? It makes the headphones sound thin. I was expecting this to have no audible effect at all. In Sound in Windows 10 Pro's Control Panel, I have found that in the AQ Cobalt driver properties, disabling the "Disable all enhancements" drastically changes the sound of my headphones even when none of the four specific sound enhancements are already selected. I have HD800s headphones that I listen through, via an Audioquest Dragonfly Cobalt dac/amp, and from a Dell laptop using mainly the Amazon Music Unlimited HD source.
