    USB audio interface with separate outputs for monitors and subwoofer?

    By solving driver issues, lowering monitors gain to 25% and increasing interface gain to 75% I've solved 95% of my problems so that even if I'm using RCA cables on this system, the remaining floor noise is really not noticeable unless you go and place the hear close to the speakers, so I think...

    USB audio interface with separate outputs for monitors and subwoofer?

    Wow, these things are expensive! xD Although after some testing, I might simply be able to go by still using the RCA cables, setting the monitors Gain to 25% and the interface to 70%, I've noticed that this way the "noise under GPU load" is so faint you almost don't hear it at 50cm from the...

    Help in troubleshooting popping/crackling noise issue

    Well, this is crazy. It might have been a driver problem. My current working theory is that when I updated from Windows 10 to Windows 11, it kept the UMC22 drivers I had installed, despite them not being fully supported by Windows 11. Therefore some kind of "internal struggle" happened on...

    Help in troubleshooting popping/crackling noise issue

    I have a pair of active monitors connected to an interface, connected to a PC running Windows 11, and these are some facts I've noticed about them: ・ when using RCA cables I have an "interference noise" coming from the speakers even at 0 volume, when my computer's GPU is under load. ・ that...

    USB audio interface with separate outputs for monitors and subwoofer?

    Yeah, 250€ only to be able to plug the subwoofer feels a bit extreme, I was hoping it could be less. This will be my last resort, thank you for the suggestion ^_^ Regarding the usb isolator, I'm not sure what they are, how to recognize the one I need and choose a good one - could you recommend...

    USB audio interface with separate outputs for monitors and subwoofer?

    Hello everyone, I'm in search of an USB audio interface of reasonable price that has separate output for monitors and subwoofer. The reason is this - currently, my rig is setup as follow: Gaming PC <-(USB)-> UMC22 interface <-(TRS a RCA)-> Subwoofer <-(RCA a TRS)-> Monitors The signal from the...

    Help building my new amateur listening room

    I've learned something concerning about the room today. When I asked the measures, they told me it was 2,70m high, so of course I've planned it with different measures for the walls in mind, the previous project was 4,75m x 3,38m x 2,70m. Now they've explained me it will be 2,70m after they put...

    Help building my new amateur listening room

    I don't think I do, and to be honest, I don't really know the purpose of that gear still :greengrin: The way I'm setup is with a PC connected to a Behringer umc22 through USB (which I use to easily control the volume of the system), SUB's connected to it, and SUB's output goes to the speakers. I...

    Help building my new amateur listening room

    Oh, nothing exceptional (relatively speaking I mean), I got a pair a Kali LP6 v2 and an SVS SB1000 pro. Today my brother (construction worker) is going to present the project to the engineer to have it approved and then the alteration of the apartment will resume, so it's still a long way before...

    Help building my new amateur listening room

    Perfect, I'll determine the placement first then :) Meanwhile, I've finalized my project! Apologize for the italian naming on things, anyway the conclusion I've reached was that I needed to take the bathroom door and the half wardrobe out of the room, so I've concocted this setup, with a small...

    Help building my new amateur listening room

    I have a placement question/doubt : Should I first place absorbing panels on the reflection points with some decent margin in such a way I can later move the monitors/desk and find the right listening position after and still get the reflections absorbed, or should I do the monitor/listening...

    Help building my new amateur listening room

    As always, thank you for the tips Sonnie :) Interesting read in the link, I've tried to apply the formula provided there to the size of my room, and the speaker placement (consequently the room layout) would turn out like this: Some things to notice due to that change: A) the bed gets rotated...

    Help building my new amateur listening room

    Many changes to the project followed so image below is the new planned "state of things" :) The room got bigger, new measures are (H,W,L) 2,70m x 3,48m x 4,75m - which through amroc I can see puts me inside the Bolt-area, that should be good right? :S The room is 44.63 m3 and the pink shows...

    Help building my new amateur listening room

    Thank you for all the tips Sonnie, I hadn't even thought about the neighbors or the door yet, and those are a lot of good points. The neighbors living above might end up hating me, so I'll use consideration and restraint, I won't blast the sub at outrageous levels and likely activate it only...

    Help building my new amateur listening room

    Hello everyone :) For reasons, I'm made to move on a new apartment that is currently being built and in building my "bedroom / listening room" I'm given some leeway in choosing some of it's properties. The things I'm allowed to change in this project are: 1) Thickness of walls 2) Positioning of...
