Still trying to find information about the HyperX USB sound card.

2018-06-08 01:26:23 UTC  

Can't figure out what it's output impedance is

2018-06-08 01:28:07 UTC  

Only thing I can find is some shit about "Dolby DSP"

2018-06-08 01:28:27 UTC  

I don't have the balls to break my DAC to get into it and see what chip it has

2018-06-08 01:30:40 UTC  

literally everything has a dolby dsp of some sort

2018-06-08 01:30:44 UTC  

break it open

2018-06-08 01:31:13 UTC  

the steelseries usb soundcard has some conexant crapbox

2018-06-08 01:31:24 UTC  

Ew, my ThinkPad has Conexant.

2018-06-08 01:31:32 UTC  

Trying to get a decent USB DAC to replace it

2018-06-08 01:31:48 UTC  

That and, the headphone jack is kinda fucked anyways

2018-06-08 01:31:56 UTC  

Think the solder joints have cracks.

2018-06-08 01:32:07 UTC  

Can't be arsed to fix it

2018-06-08 01:32:32 UTC  

hyperthonk

2018-06-08 01:33:03 UTC

2018-06-08 01:33:12 UTC  

cheap enough, might order at end of month

2018-06-08 01:35:11 UTC  

Though, I found the output impedance for the Conexant SmartAudio HD 20672

2018-06-08 01:35:18 UTC  

It's something like, 50 Ohms

2018-06-08 01:35:24 UTC  

It's an absolute crapshoot.

2018-06-08 01:35:37 UTC  

No wonder why everything sounds like shit on it

2018-06-08 02:05:45 UTC  

that's not how that works

2018-06-08 02:06:06 UTC  

that's only for multiba garbage

2018-06-08 02:06:37 UTC  

May I point you to the fact that I'm using ZS6's right now

2018-06-08 02:06:46 UTC  

🀒 buying garbage to fix garbage

2018-06-08 02:06:47 UTC

2018-06-08 02:07:02 UTC

i'm still a little impressed that windows knows its a usb-c device and not just a usb device

2018-06-08 05:26:07 UTC  

Probably hardcoded the port

2018-06-08 05:26:18 UTC

>Now we have a huge renascence in 2 channel audio of all types, Company's like Schiit, SVS, Emotiva etc... Make the old guard nervous.

The direct sales, and many of Schiit's products are very disruptive to high-end audio. Your bound to make some enemy's.

Don't worry we are winning 😎
