How do I discover the quality specifications of my laptop's soundcard?

0

This is a y510p lenovo ideapad. The product page doesn't list anything of value outside of the built-in speakers being jbl and it supporting dolby digital...irrelevant. I'm trying to discover how this laptop's soundcard matches in regards to a mobo's onboard card which has realtek alc1220. I'm unsure where this specific information is listed though.

The y510p has an ALC282 codec (or see here and search for "Y510P"). What do you mean by "quality specifications"?

I meant exactly what you gave me. How would I find or confirm this information on my laptop itself though? – kite – 2019-08-18T05:11:14.887

1In the Windows device manager my audio device has device id DEV_0292 (Realtek codec on Thinkpad X250), I believe yours should be DEV_0282 (and vendor id VEN_10EC). – Freddy – 2019-08-18T05:24:32.447

"HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0282&SUBSYS_17AA1002&REV_1000" Okay so its alc282. But is the second part referencing anything of relation to the sound quality? I'm trying to figure out why the laptop's alc282 sounds 15-25% richer/nicer than the als1220 of my pc, I've tested with 3 sets of speakers. – kite – 2019-08-18T05:34:24.770
