    The only way your PC could damage the headphones themselves is if it is sending out a post amp signal instead of line level signals.
    It seems now that it only messes up the voices from the audios any ideas?

      Do you have any software that is working as a mixer?
      The levels may need to be reset.

        Realtek High Definition Audio, i often go open it and mix sounds, but i know how to use that, and i never had a problem before, plus the problem with the voices even happens if i watch a youtube vid

        Try setting the mixer settings to 'flat'.

          its like a bit crackling and for example when i listen to a song or play a game the voices are very low and the rest is much louder

          Sounds like you are using cellphone/headset headphones, known as a "three conductor" audio jack. if you look at the plug, you will see three rings. This is not a standard audio jack; a standard audio jack would have two such rings. You will need an adapter, or a proper set of headphones. (By which I mean, with a 2-conductor Audio phono jack). Some sound cards actually support three-conductor audio for some reason, although I haven't seen very many.

          Maybe the problem is your driver or sound card.
