tuning computer speakerss

well i have a 5.1 system for my comp and my surround speakers sound louder than all my other ones and have alot of bass if i turn the bass all the way down they still distort because of all the bass even at low volumes i was wondering if anybody knew of a program where you could individually tune each speaker

thanks ahead of time

Let me guess...it's a "home theater/multimedia system in a box" with tiny satellites and full range drivers. If you really want something that has decent low bass response, there's really no substitute for a proper 5.1 system with full-size monitors.

If you really want good PC sound, get a small, used 5.1 receiver. Go DIY on the satellites, center and sub to save money - all you really need is 25 or 50W per channel, and a 8 or 10 inch sub.
