Alrighty, after doing that it's playable but the sound is still a bit weird and I get some stutter. What settings should I mess with to fix this?

What is your FPS when you get stutter?

There's nothing wrong with using SPU2-X

Can you please post screen shots of all your settings?

It drops to 41 then slowly goes back up. that's when the sound gets really bad.

Set Async mix in SPU2-X config. It will keep the sound from slowing down with the FPS

That's exactly why it sounds bad, if your game speed slows down then so does the sound which makes it sound terrible.
