i do love this card, but i just built a major new pc, with top of the range components in every sector (i7, hd5870, asus p6t, 6gb 2000mhz ram etc....) and unfortunately, i cannot use my stx with my woo audio wa2 without getting major computer noise leaking into it.
literally every time i move my mouse or the cpu process becomes intensive, i hear everything
i'm using hd800s and strangely enough, when i plug them directly into the headphone out jack, it is perfect. so i guess it's the wa2 which is very sensitive to noise. strange how it never happened before on my last computer...
anyway i've ordered a nuforce udac and run the headphones from a usb external dac for a while (whilst also connected to my wa2 of course). hopefully that will fix the problem, but its a shame to only use my xonar for speakers now
