Sound Card Questions

Thanks for the info. I spent some time working with the vendor a while back. They were helpful but we were not able to fix the problem. One thing they mentioned was to verify if there might be an IRQ conflict if the sound card is sharing with another device. They recommend trying to isolate the...

Looking for advice on a small integrated amp

I'm looking to replace it because it takes up 1/3 of my desk and there is no where else I can move it out of the way. I've also moved a few times in the last couple years and I'm getting tired of lugging it around, and it generates a lot of heat. Thanks

Looking for advice on a small integrated amp

Thanks for all the info everyone. The headphone jack is something I would like because there are a few different people that use this computer, and I've found that trying to have them do things like plug into the computer just causes more problems for me. If there is a jack right in front of...
