I bought replacement earpads from audiocubes, but they have no instructions. Is there a video or web page somewhere that explains how to replace?

Everything's set to full volume.   I get an immediate "error 4" in both Chrome and IE when trying to play mp3s on Amazon.   I get no audio with videos in either browser on youtube and various news sites.

I only have one.

Spoke too soon. All that did was make the test tone work.   Still can't get any sound when playing mp3s on Amazon.   I'm about to move to a different PC. Maybe it will work better there.

THANK YOU! That was all it took. And it explains why it had worked, then didn't, then did, etc.

I'm shutting down JRiver, not just minimizing it.   Currently in control panel -> sound -> manage audio devices the only device listed is:   Speakers 2 - OPPO HA-1 USB AUDIO 2.0 DAC Default device   In device manager -> sound, video and game controllers, these are disabled:   High...

I only have one device for sounds, and it's the HA-1. All other drives are disabled.   Volume is set to 100% on all sliders.   JRiver is shut down.   I had assumed that Windows would use the ASIO driver, and sent sound to the HA-1, same as when JRiver sends sound to the HA-1.   This has...

It's baaaack.   Nothing changed in settings, back to not hearing any Windows sounds, no youtube, yet JRiver plays digital audio files without a problem.   Changing the HA-1 driver to non-exclusive has no effect.

That's my only gripe too!

Odd. I clicked around in some of the sound-config dialogs and it started working. No idea what I changed.

Ran into a bizarre problem with sound in any browser on my PC.   For example mp3 samples on Amazon, which I use (or used to use before this problem) to decide what CDs to buy.   When I click on a sample, in Chrome or Internet Explorer, it immediately says error 4, and there is no sound.  ...

Let me see if I can correctly summarize, with questions:   Case 1:   -- Start with unit unplugged from USB and with volume turned off (unit turned off).   -- Plug into USB.   -- Turn on unit.   -- Unit will draw power from USB.   -- If using USB port with sufficient power, battery...

  Makes sense.   Is the idea behind running off battery that it produces cleaner power? If so, it sounds like NORMAL mixes battery and USB power, so whatever improvements could be had from just battery are forfeited anyway.   Regarding the iUSB power supply, I didn't see anything on iFi's...

Interesting! I want one...   What are the cable connections for a laptop with the audio files and JRiver, the iDSD, and an iUSB. Is there a diagram somewhere? None of the manuals on their site seems to show how to hook it up.

  What is an iUSB power supply?   I have been connecting the iDSD to my work laptop with the supplied blue USB cable.   Is there a different/better charger I should be using?
