5.1 Surround Issue

[stealthredneck]

Hello!

Just wondering if anyone could help me on a minor sound issue...

Before I bought Bioshock, I downloaded the demo from steam. I have the Logitech Z5300 5.1 surround set, so i set my speakers to 5.1 and Bioshock to 5.1 as well. The game sounded great no issues!

However...

Once I installed the full game (via dvd) the sound wasn't quite right. It is surround but some sounds are weaker. For example all gun related noises, plasmid strikes/firing, etc. almost sound weak now...Their quite and less bassy. Voices and ambient noises seem to remain unaffected. When I installed the full version..well nothing was changed with my speaker drivers or setup to my knowledge. I was just wondering if there's anyway to get the good UMPH back into my weapon noises!

All help is much appreciated,
thanks!
