hello, i got an xonar D1 and i was just wondering if any of you guys think the output power is a little weak?
My onboard not only does the same volume at only 20% but also sounds better to my ears. When i play a game i have to set to volume it's max to be able to hear things normal and for music it's the same thing. It also has weak base. I'm using a sennheiser PC-320 witch has an impedance of 32ohm.
 
I'm a noob when it comes to electronics, but i can solder, so was thinking about changing the capacitors. Ive looked at the first post, but why change only 2 when there is a row of 4 capacitors? and my D1 seems to have a different power circuitry. Does anyone know what is what or witch i need to change?
 
Also does it have any negative effect if you replace 25v 22uF caps with 50v 22uF once? My brother still has a few Silmic II but they are 50v 22uF. 
 
thanks.

Ok, Im wondering if someone can help me out here...
I have the Xonar DX 7.1 rev1.02... unfortunately, at some point I removed the card and whilst removing the power supply adapter,
I was stupid enough to catch and snap off the capacitor that sits on CE36...
I have searched and searched but cannot find any information on the capacitor I need to replace the snapped off one...
yes I know, I could most likely attach the original capacitor... if only I had it...
(the wife loves to clean and throw things away, at my annoyance)

Can someone help me, please... by telling me what capacitor I need to sit on space CE36

also I notice that all the capacitors have a little seat... the seat for my missing capacitor is also missing...
would this come with the capacitor or could I buy another to replace... if needed, of course!
 
Much appreciated

Hello guys,
 
I want to replace op-amps in my Xonar DX soundcard to LME49860 and I have some questions...
 
  1. Are these the op-amps what I have to replace?

  2. What kind of power supply caps did you suggest for LME49860?
  3. Do I need anything else?
 
Btw I looked this picture and I think these are the power supply caps. Am I correct or I just misunderstanding something?
