Nope, never touched it I don't even have internet on that computer. It just did that when I went to switch over to AUX to use an alternative speaker output. Whenever I use the DAC feature of the X3II I have numerous problems as mentioned above. I'm going to go into the room there and reset...

Thanks, yeah they asked for more detailed explanation yesterday on the issue.  [Id: S93531-T24769]   Other than that audio plays back fine on most systems, my computer is so messed up though hardware wise due to corrupt os so you do hear some artifacts in the audio, drop outs but nothing to do...

ahha oh god,  OK any ways uhm having some interesting audio issues and observations: -The volume of the DAP doesn't matter regardless so long as an amp is connected I leave it at 0 - The volume of the E17K doesn't  matter when being used with the dac while an auxiliary input exist (now the...

Indeed, but we are all cursed in our own ways. Some with luck, others with patience, and even others with a form of greed. Yeah I saw that but over looked it some how that must be living hell no AC  as sunbeams bounce of the blacktop, it is 1500 hours a high pitch buzz pierces the ear. I look...

  lol I don't need to be on no list.  Any type of tech really, I broke a bloody blender simply to turning it on and had the blade come right at me. Yeah I remember the SD card post a while back, that is equally as bad tech wise your list there. Damn laws of uncertainty*.  All so neat fact if...

Don't worry lol is just me I am just a very unlucky person, everything I touch turns to coal. This is not an exaggeration, buy a new computer battery dies when I take it home. Wifi breaks the next week, OS becomes corrupted what I am doing with it just listening to music. I stay at a friends...

lol yeah I hear that a lot. The word is tangents I believe.  The interrupts request and deferred procedure calls are spiking the CPU access when the device is plugged in since two days ago across a multitude of devices, is not an isolated issue. The firmware is up to date as well. I can remove...

Hey guys, super weird issue the hardware controller on X3II is seemingly fried. My computer is really old, the last owner was rough with her and the people who sold it to me were quite ignorant and in effect sold me a brick. I isolated all the issues and rectified them to the best of knowledge...

Thanks man, btw I am Canadian so is about 919 ;) 

Hey sorry, don';t meant to post so much today :/ uhm so using this dac on mid level computer speaker system is no edifier but altec. These things were dying before, but this dac maxes her out at such a low level. Speaker level 100% with a bass cap of 25% 120 DAC amp 32 volume so about 50% output...

  I was so confused reading this at first, jeeze need to sleep more. Uhm you could try purchasing an amp, I use aux output for such needs. 

Hey, is it just because this forum is sponsored every one is tight nit about copyright law? I've all ready had a dispute revolving around this unintentionally. Generally I believe if material can't be provided directly from external parties you should at least be able to discuss said material in...

Dude shhhh lol you no give ideas xD, wi-fi may not be needed but at least we can use tidal properly.All so for the display size I think the quality aspect is a good thing, they're about creating well built products. I think the price was 1k or something which really isn't expensive at all. It is...

I do a soft reset, it just shuts off and turns on. Doesn't effect anything at all is just a hardware reset, I'm sure if you held it down it would do a factory reset but shouldn't have any effect on your card. You can all ways remove it though if you're worried, I don't like too as it goes...

Don't worry about it, I just wanted to share that. Is epic to BSOD a device other than windows. I just reset it lol, have to do that a lot for FIIO products for me any ways. I think I fried them a little when I plugged a digital cable with variating poles in backwards. Still works just keep a...

Woot woot, went to start my computer red light on X3 w.e play song no audio w.e go to shut it off and BSOD :D    

lol I understand that.... and all right I understand now am being an idiot. As soon you brought up recording, I'm becoming too focused on the buffer over latency with regards to the hardware. Overall recording sees more benefit from a higher buffer as it is in ratio with the sample rate, for 192...

Networking capabilities, the thing sounds like a beast. 512GB SD, 32 bit now we're talking. Best Christmas ever? Do we know a potential price yet? Update: the design looks good, I really dislike how they raise the sides with the slanted ends is annoying. I have that on my amp and bands  slide...

Never would, I like windows 7 is best os since xp and not ever changing until software becomes incompatible for my needs. I tried windows 8 once, was intriguing didn't mind it till I figure out how the apps worked. Then it became tedious to switch between interfaces, was just every where. And I...

That's pretty clever, and makes sense based on how they look. I've never had any need or desire to know why they were considerably faster then their HDD counterparts.  So right on. I would understand timing being different is completely different hardware, and based on the thread of discussion...

  Thank you for clarifying, I made it sound like the computer would play the files at original rate lol... you need the sample rate that high if you have files that match that rate other wise the dap will decode into 16 bit files or whatever the default is.

Isn't that allocated to the read access memory (the performance knock back can all most be negligible if you have a good drive over low ram, or high ram over bad drive) , as the data chucks are still being processed with a low buffer only on the local disk? So an SSD with a low buffer/ram  and a...

Jeeze thanks, I could have had a PHD in audio engineering for all you know. Sometimes it is better to pretend to know nothing at all so you can truly know what others know.   Though my opinion for sample rate is that maxing out is best, the application you use will provide the sample rate of...

If you are running a 64 bit architecture and are a bass head you can go into enhancements and enable bass boost, I set it at 80hz 6DB as my amp is all ready +10 with -4 treble.That will have your ears shaking pretty good, I have HD-25s and I notice the right connection keeps becoming loose as...

Yeah is what I am no Yeah is what I am not sure of. :/
