The Xonar will have problems with lack of compatible driver.
There is alternative driver, but I do not know if is any good.

I had that issue with a Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series, and Windows 10. Interestingly the newer ALC's with good APO's and/or DSP's does as good, in some cases better.
If you are using digital output, such as optical, you might notice some difference (due to physical hardware used), but mostly it will be APO's that change audio.

With my X-Fi, I was always using SPDIF-Optical, and DTS Interactive, with my S1220A, I am doing the same, the real difference is the Realtek vs Creative APO's (software).

In some ways you can also imagine something like: Asus registered ALC version + Asus Crystal Sound 3 + Premium parts = Asus sound device.
On a personal level, I would rather not spend extra money on expensive analogue parts, when I don't use analogue.

Xonar, uyumlu sürücü eksikliği ile ilgili sorunlar yaşayacaktır.
Alternatif bir sürücü var, ama iyi olup olmadığını bilmiyorum.
Thanks for your comment. I used uni xonar, when it was first installed I got fine gradations in hi-fi mode, but after restarting the effect seems to be on. I think it's causing problems since I'm using Win11.

Bu sorunu bir Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series ve Windows 10 ile yaşadım. İlginç bir şekilde, iyi APO'lara ve/veya DSP'lere sahip daha yeni ALC'ler aynı derecede iyi, bazı durumlarda daha iyi.
Optik gibi bir dijital çıkış kullanıyorsanız, bazı farklılıklar fark edebilirsiniz (kullanılan fiziksel donanım nedeniyle), ancak sesi değiştiren çoğunlukla APO'lar olacaktır.

X-Fi'mle her zaman SPDIF-Optical ve DTS Interactive kullanıyordum, S1220A'mla da aynısını yapıyorum, asıl fark Realtek ile Creative APO'lar (yazılım) arasında.

Bazı yönlerden şunun gibi bir şey de düşünebilirsiniz: Asus kayıtlı ALC sürümü + Asus Crystal Sound 3 + Premium parçalar = Asus ses cihazı.
Kişisel olarak, analog kullanmadığım zamanlarda pahalı analog parçalara fazladan para harcamayı tercih etmem.
Thanks for your comment. I also tried the drivers you shared, I couldn't get natural and original sound. There was some artificial and environmental sound. I guess the problem is me. because i am using 2.0 hi-fi sound system with rca cable. spdif support is unfortunately not available in my amp. Can you help with reinstalling realtek versions to get high resolution audio?
