Interesting find, glad you got it working though
Funny you should mention this. I have three USB 2.0 ports, and I actually did try switching to another port and got the same problem. So I (hastily) eliminated that as a possibility. But just for the hell of it I tried the third port, and so far so good!... fingers crossed.
One interesting thing I noticed: with the first two ports, the DAC was recognized instantly as "Nuforce Icon HD" which is what showed in my sound properties. On the third port it actually didn't recognize the DAC at first and eventually showed up as "USB Audio Device"/"Default Device". So I'm not sure if it's a USB problem or perhaps a Windows driver problem. In any event I hope it stays fixed.
If youre going to upgrade the power supply, build a Sigma 11.
Where can I get some info/skematics of this Sigma 11 power supply ?? : I am familiar with building power supplies, so maybe I will build one.
Thanks
FWIW, the Nuforce LPS-1 is on sale right now: http://estore.nuforce.com/15v-linear-power-supply/
But that requires DIY skill, time, casework, etc.
I have the LPS-2U-192k and pair it with my HDP and Icon2. Excellent piece of kit there.
