It's not just you, it's probably that thing called placebo effect

You can try some OPA2107AP there dip-8 dual channel op-amps there like a cheaper ver of the OPA627.

I have an M-Stage connected to Asus ST(2xOPA827, 49710HA's), anything over 50% volume oscillates and gets painfully harsh, what volume % do you guys normally set your Asus ST/X when connected to an external amp?
 
(HD650 + Silver dragon cable)

^i use ASIO, so 100%. i get no oscillation or unpleasant sound. you should change op-amps in I/V, they're probably not stable.

With the "beta" or the last drivers, the volume does not work. (Windows XP>ΑSUS>FOOBAR>ASIO).

Ok thanks, I'm going to revert to the originals until i get some 49720HA for I/V.

I had the latest Asus driver installed "1792", will use UNi Xonar latest 1792 instead, will see if it makes a difference, thanks.
 
Edit: everything works ok on UNi drivers, also using ASIO in foobar.

Hey
Linux alsamixer have two options Dac Filter(Slow Roll-off or Sharp Roll-off) and Dac Oversampling(64x or 128x).What are the best settings?

 

[cladisch]

For the roll-off behaviour, see the section "TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CURVES" in the PCM1792A datasheet.
For oversampling, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta-sigma_modulation#Oversampling.
 
If you don't understand any of this, try sharp and 128x.
If you don't hear a difference, all settings are best.

Sennheiser 595 or new Sennheiser 598?Which is better with xonar st?

You are using the line outs on the card right? -I have to ask.

Yes, everything seems fine now using Uni Xonar drivers, [size=10pt]Vanagon[/size] did mention Asus new drivers aren't working properly which seems to be the case.

No sir, I never said so!
As for the volume, the not working declares the "bit perfect" condition.
