Have you tried a USB cable with the extra power connector? One of my external hard drives comes with a cable like this.

For what its worth, it had less pop problems on my laptop.

Ok, I didn't think it was difficult to plug the two together & give a quick review but maybe it is? So how does it sound with the MSB?


I just got the MSB a couple of days ago. It already sounds very good with my motherboard's digital out. The Monitor 01 may sound better, but the pop issue is an absolute deal killer.

Dunno if I can actually find a cable like that... and it would need to have the larger connection "square" on the device-end. Love the Avatar, btw

that is a sweet idea for a cable.

maybe it is a driver thing.

I agree, it's a deal killer but I'm pretty sure you have a bad unit & not a driver issue!

Perhaps you just got a bad unit, it happens. Try e-mailing the seller and see if you can get an exchange going.

Also, I recommend this USB hub, I use two of them and have everything I use plugged into them, including: keyboard, mouse, usb mic, ipod sync cable, 1TB external HDD, Xbox wireless controller adapter, etc. and all of it works perfectly. It's a Multi-TT hub, which if you're unfamiliar, means that opposed to a single-TT hub, each USB port has it's own data controller meaning each USB port gets full bandwidth capabilities, rather than having one port's shared bandwidth (more useful for having a usb 1.1 device and a usb 2.0 device connected, a single-TT hub would bring the speed down to 1.1 for the 2.0 device).

Those are the hubs I use...They're great....


some1x, you must have a bad unit. I have tried the USD01 on 2 desktops and 2 laptops and never experienced any sort of pop. Just smooth sound...I did not use the enclosed cd. Just downloaded the updated drivers and plugged it in...
I did not purchase mine from the seller you did, though. Mine was from coolfungadget...

Is there any update on the mac driver?

or

is there a website/newsgroup where I can monitor the driver update notification?

It might very well take a month or so to get it out, remember they are programming the chip for 24/192 usb. Not an easy task or every dac company would do it.

Yeah. I understand. I was just wondering if there is a page where I can periodically check for updates and such. Or even register to get notification or similar.
