  If you experience clipping or distortion during audio playback with your Creative headset, ensure your computer system is running in high-performance mode and disable any power-saving features. The music source itself might be distorted, so verify that the music being played has no distortion. Also, make sure that any software graphical equalizers or sound processing effects found in third-party media players are disabled.
