So i got a dacmagic plus, headphones, drivers for the dac and a pc. I'm getting no sound at all. Am I missing something that's needed to get sound?
Install gentoo

Isn't that for linux?
plug in the headphones
>>60354195
They are. No sound. And it looks like the device is working too as the volume bar goes up and down when i test it, i just dont have any sound
>>60354215
post a picture of the back. is ti connect via USB? And you said drivers were installed. Check that your headphones havent fried or something somehow
It could be a faulty unit too. Try all possible solutions
>>60354357
I checked if my headphones had exploded, they had not.
whered you buy it from
>>60354447
I haven't bought it yet, I got to borrow it for a day to test it before buying it.
Hi-Fi klubben in norway
Do your headphones need power to use? Is this an Amp as well or just a DAC?
>>60354480
They dont require power. All i have is the dac, headphones and my laptop
i'm assuming you already did this since it's a rudimentary step, but make sure you have the correct source selected when you go to Sound on the control panel
>>60354458
theyre probably the best people to ask then, youre not going to buy it of you cant get it to work are you
maybe take your laptop & phones into the shop and get them to set it up
>>60354501
yup.
>>60354502
Probably, i just wantet to take this opportunity to compare my equipment so see if i want to buy it or not
restart your computer

your ears
>>60354840
have you tried using different headphones
>>60354978
I don't have any other headphones with a jack that fits
>>60355117
use an adapter
put the headphone jack in your anus and let it warm up
>>60355221
Don't listen to this asshole.
Select the DAC in sound setting (right click on volume on taskbar) and set desired bitrate and sampling rate or use asio,wasapi compatible music player.
What's the OS?
>>60355290
Don't forget to set all system and software volume at 100 for maximum fidelity unless u are using asio,wasapi
>>60355302
win 64 bit
When i try to play videos or in general anything that produces sound it kind of just freezes up for abit. Really don't know what i'm doing wrong
>>60355468
Check your audio devices.
>>60355570
I have, it's set to my dac, same bitrate as what my dac is on
Select source using button on front
Make sure you don't have any audio devices or software taking priority over the dacmagic
