not necessarily, it can solve problems with the new 8 system, adds more ALC's support, but won't make a huge impact on the sound, unless it's a huge update or something really rare.

I wish they would list what the "Customizations" are.

I am still using the Win7 Realtek Audio Driver V6.0.1.6699. from the Asus page of my Motherboard.
Every newer release than the one i am using, the ALC898 Audio CODEC that my Mobo uses is never on the list for supported codecs.
Although i have installed newer versions without any problems, despite the ALC898 codec not being on the supported list.
They should at least include a changes log for any bug fixes or optimizations
made to the drivers.

Very good driver without a single problem so far. Realtek has the best driver support. Both, Audio and Network always work flawlessly.
Meanwhile, ASUS for some reason released the version 6.0.1.7040 which is problematic, at least on my Motherboard. It doesn't give me option to select 5.1 with normal, Rear Speakers. It provides only Side speakers for 5.1.
This is newer anyway ( 6.0.1.7071 ).
If only Creative could provide as good driver support... I'd still be using my X-Fi Platinum while an order for a Z series would have been placed already. But... never again Creative. I hear the driver even for Z series on Win 8/8.1 have the same, ancient problems.
On an unrelated note, on Windows 8.1 the built-in driver seems extremely good. Slightly less CPU usage ( audiodg.exe ), options for both, Rear & Side speakers for 5.1 setups, ability to manage Crossover ( on Enhancements -> Bass Management ) and ability to manage the volume of each speaker separately ( properties -> levels -> balance ). I don't understand why Realtek doesn't provide same functionality at least.

is there any reason to upgrade from previous revisions, like do new audio drivers have the same effect as say upgrading gpu drivers?
