    Auzentech X-fi Bravura 7.1 Sneak Peek

    Resurecting a dead thread here... I just finally went to Windows 10 and I am having issues with my Bravura's headphone output in Windows 10. I was also having issues with the mic input but that is resolved. The headphone output sounds like it is cranked to 100% and I can't turn it down. The...

    Suggestions for a Fostex T50RP Build

    Hello,   I was in the market for a new set of headphones and was looking to spend less than $300 for a closed headphone.  I had finally decided to either get an Audio-Technica ATH-M50x or an AKG K550 but then I started reading about the Fostex T50RP and how you can mod it to get a great...

    Opinion on the computer speakers ever? Harman Kardon GLA-55?? Other opinions?

    My personal favorite are the ones I have.  The M-Audio LX-4 5.1.  Granted, I haven't heard most of the ones you list.  You can only find them used and M-Audio has pretty much disappeared except in name only.

    Auzentech X-fi Bravura 7.1 Sneak Peek

    I just ordered one off Ebay as well.  Mine was NIB from Korea.  It is my second one.  The first one started having wierd popping issues.  The last thing I thought was the issue was the sound card.  The one from Ebay works well and I can see some physical differences (improvements) from my first...

    Help replace my dead Auzentech Bravura 7.1

    The Bravura had a replaceable headphone op amp.  I really enjoyed the LME49720HA.  I have the M-Audio LX4 5.1 surround.  I had panicked at first when I started having sound issues thinking it was the amp in the sub that was failing.  I guess this isn't much better because Auzentech can't fix my...

    Help replace my dead Auzentech Bravura 7.1

    Not sure if that works.  The headphone amp doesn't look replaceable?  How do I get my 5.1 system hooked up?

    Help replace my dead Auzentech Bravura 7.1

    Hey Guys,   I just finished troubleshooting my sound issues and it appears that my Bravura has died.  I loved that damn sound card.  It had everything I needed.  PCI-E, replaceable op-amps, and a headphone amp.  I see Auzentech is gone so what is my replacement options with those requirements?

    Auzentech X-fi Bravura 7.1 Sneak Peek

    Anyone still enjoying this soundcard?  I sure am.  It hasn't given me a single ounce of trouble and still sounds great especially with some of the new op amps I put in the thing.

    Help me replace my Equation Audio RP21's

    I came here a few years ago seeking headphone advice and was directed toward the Equation Audio RP21's.  I have fairly well enjoyed them over the years but not the plastic portion of the head band is cracking is most likely will not be long for this world.  I tried to contact Equation directly...

    Auzentech X-fi Bravura 7.1 Sneak Peek

      Quote:   I think I have figured it out.  Without too much involved explanation it has to do with the new 260+ Nvidia drivers and running BOINC with a GPU work unit.  I am not sure who to complain to.  Nvidia?  Auzentech?  Einstein@home?  I know one thing...nobody at Auzentech replied...

    Auzentech X-fi Bravura 7.1 Sneak Peek

    I am having a new issue with my Bravura.  It started a few weeks ago just after the new driver update came out but I had not upgraded yet.  I noticed that periodically the sound would go all tinny and hollow and I would get static from my rear speakers.  This happens simultaneously on all...

    Auzentech X-fi Bravura 7.1 Sneak Peek

    I just received and installed Linear Technology's LT1364 op amp.  I have installed them on the headphone and front channels.  I like their transparency.  They seem to bring bass more forward than other op amps I have tried.  More so than the OPA227.  I am trying to decide if I like that or not.

    Auzentech X-fi Bravura 7.1 Sneak Peek

    Quote: I use the Equation RP-21's.  It was a good fit based on my varied headphone use. (music, games, LAN parties, movies).   My new OP AMP's to replace those I fried have arrived so when my new Brown Dog order arrives I will soldier those up, correctly this time.
