even back in the day a lot of folks played EQ with the sound off...I actually thought there was no sound in EQ for the first month that I played, because my friends had turned it all off by the time they called me up to hang out and "see the new game they were playing"---ah memories.
some of the music is actually pretty charming...and the old school sound effects have a real nostalgia to them. (I've always wondered why the loudest sound in EQ is opening and closing a bag. And the "hiccup" sound jumping makes is pretty identifiable to EQ) neither of these require (or would get any better) with a modern high end sound card.
