Originally posted by wallijonn i honestly don't think so. the data cable runs data & control signals. the digital or analogue 'pigtail' cables will carry the actual sound waveform. i've found that mediaplayer or cdplayer will not produce sound out of the cdrom front jack (usually about 0.8v @ 32 ohms. @300 ohms, that probably produces about 0.2 v, if not less). to get the front jack to produce sound, one would have to use creative player. at least it's a way to compare sound quality between outputs. use a digital 2 wire pigtail cable instead of the 4 wire analogue cable. then try, again. digital audio extraction actually works better on the audigy than the SBlive!. xp should necessitate a reboot upon first enabling. |

Originally posted by Jackangel The best way to find out about ordering a meta42 is to PM someone who makes them, such as KurtW, JMT, erix, etc... There's more than one way to PM someone. One convenient method is to click on the PM button located at the bottom of a message posted in a thread by someone you wish to PM. For example, if you wanted to PM me, just click on the PM button at the bottom of this message. That will take you to another page where you can send the PM. It's very much like posting to a thread in one of the public forums, but here you will find a recipient field, which must contain the name of the person you are PMing. After that, put in a subject (required for PM) and then enter the body of your message as usual. Another way is to click on the 'user cp' button in the top right corner of nearly every Head-Fi web page. This takes you to your own user control panel, from which you can manage your Head-Fi acount. From here, click on the 'private messages' link (upper right). Then click on the 'new message' button (near-bottom center) and send your PM as described. You can try it out by PMing me with any other questions/comments, and I can pretend like I know something. As for getting a meta42, those who build them will help you sort out of the details, just ask them whatever's on your mind. You should have a clear idea of how you will use the amp, how much you can pay, etc. I think you can expect to wait 2-3 weeks from the time you finalize an order to get your amp, assuming the builder isn't too busy. piece, rp:AUM |

Originally posted by mercid No, I mean by default windows XP does not use that cable. You can set it up to use the cable but whats the point? Even if the cable is plugged in and you have not changed windows XP config then it will not use the cable. |
