So, I've just received the product mentioned above, and the Coaxial/USB Inputs are not working? In order for it to produce anything, I have to use the Line-in on the front.
Does the computer recognize the the device? According to the Quick Start Guide, no USB drivers are necessary and it should be plug-and-play.
Are both RCA outputs, normal and pre, not working? Are you using only headphones?
It's brand new, I just got it today. I haven't tried either RCA, nor will I ever use them. I am only using headphones. I'm more concerned with the fact that Coaxial won't work, as there is not much that can go wrong other than something physical in the unit itself. It's more of a minor inconvenience as using the Line-in input is still outputting the best sound I've ever heard.
- What is the source of the signal being input into the box, computer?
- Did you setup the computer to utilize the digital coax out?
- Are you using a SPDIF coax cable or a plain RCA?
- Does the computer recognize the USB audio interface in Windows Device Manager?

Have you rebooted the computer since attaching the box via USB?

1. Yes, the Sabertooth Z87 motherboard
2. How?
3. I'm using the Coax cable that came with the unit.
4. No.
It is great that you got it working but since this is a new product under warranty you should contact them and get a replacement. All the inputs should be working. Also optical is usually limited to 24 bit 96khz and the DAC is capable of 24 bit 192khz through the other inputs. You can download free high resolution audio files with links from this site:
