    Update:
    Manged to get better results, but still not how it should be. Without any of these enabled https://i.imgur.com/qXjFvgE.png in control panel sound that i hear isn't that far from what i hear after in recordings. But when start to enable them sound in recordings goes bad, surround is the one that makes the biggest difference, it's the one that makes it sound like in a "fishtank" in recordings.
    Hope that helps to get any further with solution.
    I don't want to go back to win7 because of this again. :/
    If any more information is needed, please ask.

    P.S. I guess i will use this forum for this issue since i don't get any solutions from eightforums

    Thanks for the link, but im already informed about what these settings does.
    Just trying to figure out where something is going wrong. Played back recordings sound so much different from original while in windows 7 with exact same settings original and recording was 1 to 1 the same

    Are you using the same bitrate as you did in Win 7? e.g. 16 bits/44.1Khz or 24 bits/44.1Khz (16 bits/44.1Khz is "CD Quality". And are you saving as wav files or some other format?

    Yes using same bitrates, also tried both already. And im using OBS streaming software for tests. Tried other software and nothing changes. So it isn't recording software related, it's what is given to it by windows.

    Update:
    Drivers are not the issue as tested, both realtek and creative audio devices provide 1:1 sound as long as no bass/surround sound or any these kind of enhancements are enabled. So by that, as long as no enhancements are enabled for sound i can get a good quality recordings from windows 8. Now i am looking how to solve this issue and being able to make recordings on windows 8 with sound enhancements

    Update:
    Another thing that i didn't notice before was driver version showed by device manager https://i.imgur.com/e6iOkrx.png. latest drivers are installed which are 1.2.1.0 of 29.01.2014 while device manager shows 1.1.0.0 from 26.04.2013.
