Windows 7 allows sounds picked up from your microphone to flow directly to your speakers, so you receive instant feedback from what you're recording. As an example, if you were recording a training tutorial for your employees, you might want to hear your words as you say them to gauge quality. However, this method works considerably better if you connect a pair of headphones to your speaker's headphone jack to prevent the sounds from feeding back into the microphone. However, if you're speaking into a directional microphone, reducing its sensitivity and keeping it away from your speakers will minimize feedback even when using speakers.
Mess with your mic levels in control panel- manage audio devices- recording - properties- levels 2. Buy a 3.5mm to usb sound card and wire your kraken pro through that i have tried the first one and while it works it also makes your mic very quiet, looking at picking up a usb sound card soonish.
