I recently got this headset, and wow is it good. My only issue is when certain people talk on discord, I can hear a really high pitched ringing. I fiddled with a bunch of settings, computer audio and discord, and nothing seems to solve the issue. It is primarily if not all in my right ear only. Is there something wrong with my headset, or was that ringing always there I can just hear it cause the headset is THAT good? I haven't had any issues with any other application, though I have yet to test if I can hear the ringing on a different version of discord, say on my xbox instead of my pc. Only other issue I've had is occasional static, but I can't tell if it's from the headset or the show/game/etc.

However, it seems that the DACport HD with this 8.0.1 driver doesn't feature 24 bit Windows DirectSound drivers. What the hell? There are only 16 bit options available in the Windows sound properties and even the ASIO panel has been tweaked, so it automatically sets your sample rate and bit depth based on what a host program reports, instead of letting you choose. What the hell to both of these! Not having 24 bit DS drivers must be a mistake, for it means that anything using the default "just output sound windows" command effectively is stuck in 16bit.
I'll probaby just downgrade back to the previous driver, but I'm surprised things would have turned out like this. Fortunately, I've saved the installed. CEntrance's site is being redesigned literally right now, as in there is no page for a variety of products, I see placeholder texts, you can't download drivers, nothing.
