In terminal, type\n```\npulseaudio --dump-resample-methods\n```\nand take a look at the output. You should see some speex-float-#, etc. I read that \"float\" is best for most computers, and 0-10 is the \"quality\". We want the highest quality possible... 10. Make note of that, for example speex-float-10. We'll put that in our config file next.\n\nGo back into the config file like before, using\n```\nsudo nano ~/.config/pulse/daemon.conf\n```\n\nChange\n```\nresample-method = speex-float-#\n```\nto the new method that we just found. Delete the semi-colon.\nCtrl-X, Y, and Enter to save.\n\nOpen the **/etc/pulse/default.pa** file and go to the end of the file and add\n```\nload-module module-udev-detect\n```\n\nRestart PulseAudio. To do this, type\n```\npulseaudio --kill\npulseaudio --start\n```\nWait a moment, and it will restart itself with the new settings.\n\nYou are done!\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbeangreen247%2Fbestpulseaudiomicsettings","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fbeangreen247%2Fbestpulseaudiomicsettings","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbeangreen247%2Fbestpulseaudiomicsettings/lists"}
