Hello, I have a headroom ultra desktop with the dsp power supply and the stepped attenuator. I use it with kimber usb cable and the dimarzio rca cables to connect to my poweramp which is non-headroom. I use siltech speaker cables.
It works fine with my big home pc, but now I use it with my laptop because my pc is out of the running. My laptop is a toshiba tecra a9 and it runs windows xp (it used to run vista but I am happily rid of that now). It works fine if I use it with headphones only but as soon as I turn on my speakers i get a LOT of interference. It works ok if I remove the usb connector from the laptop and connect it to my tv receiver through optical but as soon as I plug in the usb connector I get the noise, even though i do not actively use the usb itself. If I turn off the poweramp everything works fine again...
I am using the seem cables as with my computer so I suppose the problem is with my laptop but I find it strange because it works fine if I use my headphone only....
