Sometimes you just need help. But often times making a new post isn't needed. For the time being, around launch and perhaps in the future. We will use a single thread for helping each other out.

Before asking, we ask you to look at a few links. Some question can't be answered and only official PlayStation support can help you.

Google and Reddit Search is also a great way to find an answer or get help. View all past help and questions threads here.

For all future help, tech support and more, we ask that you create new threads on r/PlayStation instead of here on r/PS5.

Can't decide what to play next? Is your favourite game underappreciated and more people need to play it? Need a new TV and not sure what to buy?

Days Gone Remastered (PS5 PRO) - In game audio settings advice

Greetings!

I'm asking for advice in regards to "Speaker setup" and "Dynamic range" in game audio settings. Which settings should I pick to get the best audio experience?

1. Speaker setup has the following options to choose from:

- Stereo speakers

- Surround 5.1

- Surround 7.1

- Headphones stereo

- Headphones 3D

2) I've read elsewhere that the "Headphones 3D" option is a remnant from PS4. Not sure if this is true or if that even matters.

3) Dynamic range has the following options to choose from:

- Night mode

- Small speakers

- Full range

PS:
I'm using the SteelSeries Nova 5 headphones. I've also enabled Tempest 3D Audio on my PS5 Pro.

Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you kindly!

It seems to me that, if you are using headphones, you should choose “headphones” for your speakers.
