Configuring your CS:GO sound settings can really boost your game. First off, make sure you're using headphones - it helps a lot with directional sound. Go to settings > audio settings in the game, and tweak the 'Master Volume' and 'Music Volume in Steam Overlay' to your liking. Lower the music volume to hear footsteps and gunshots clearer. Also, enable '3D Audio Processing' for a better spatial sound experience. Don't forget to tweak the 'Advanced 3D Audio Processing' for even more precise sound cues!

Honestly, just turn down the music and crank up the 'Master Volume'. You gotta hear those footsteps coming!

Pro tip: Play with the 'Audio Output Configuration'. If you're using headphones, select the 'Stereo Headphones' setting. Makes a massive difference in tracking where shots and steps are coming from.
