I just built a PC with a MSI B550-A pro and a generic Bluetooth adapter and I have 2 questions 1. I'm just trying to play games with my brother and I can't talk, only audio works. On the Front media panel or whatever its called(new to this PC thing) there are separate audio and microphone jacks and not a combined one. I haven't been able to input through there either. I have tried multiple ports on the front and the back, usb 2 and three. When I connect airpods or my Q20i soundcore headphones, it recognizes it as a voice and audio, then when I try to use it it doesn't work. If I test audio in windows (11) settings, It no longer recognizes it as audio. I am lost. I think its probably not a bluetooth issue but a hardware issue but who knows. 2. I do have two audio cables (one not pictured but it has an HD audio and an AC'97 and it comes from the lower header) and two other things I didnt plug into the mobo bc I couldn't find where they go and linus didn't mention them in the guide as far as I heard. The black USB and the Italian colored 5V come from the lower front media panel and the audio one comes from the upper.

I recently obtained an Acer N15Q9 Chromebook and started to play around with it. After finding ChromeOS to be a poor experience I decided to go through the whole ordeal to get Linux running on it. I used the tools and guides provided by mrchromebox to flash UEFI firmware to the device and proceeded to install Ubuntu 22.10. Everything works fine except when I try to playback audio. It will work fine for a while but then the audio playback will stop and the computed produces a harsh buzzing sound from the speakers. I believe it to be software related as video sources accompanying the audio, like a YouTube video, will stop playback and appear to buffer as this happens.The PC remains usable but until the audio source is killed the speakers continue to do this. I tried installing Ubuntu 22.04.1 as Ubuntu migrated to PipeWire in 22.10 but the issue is present there as well. Anybody got any ideas as to what could be going on?

Hi Fellow Techies I posted on the LTT Reddit but I feel like most active members are on the official forum here so apologies if this is the second time you read this. I don't know if this is the right place to ask but I recently broke my gaming headset (the Logitech G Pro X) and was thinking of making a fun repair project out of it since Logitech support is a pain in the a@# and doesn't offer any repair options. I've tried a lot of troubleshooting, different cables, software updates, different PC, tried analog instead of USB, all yielded the same result. Now I am not a professional but as a true LTT fan I diagnosed my own problem as being that my 3.5 port is most likely broken due to the forceful ejection. I want to take it to a local repair shop but I was wondering (if the problem is diagnosed correctly) how hard it would be to solder on a new port or even repair it (but for repairing I don't know what to look for) I don't really want to buy a new pair since it's such a waste cause everything worked perfectly before. Any peripheral repairers in chat? Thanks in advance for your time

Good morning, everyone I have a problem I'm hoping everyone can help me with. My girlfriend and I just moved into a new condo, and we have 2 gaming setups in 1 room. The problem is that when I talk, I can hear myself on her mic and same for her (on discord and stream labs). What is the solution for this we both have Elgato Wave 3 mics. Do we need to buy new mics or is there something we can do to make these work?

Hey, I recently resurrected my laptop from the dead with a motherboard replacement. I decided instead of installing Windows, I would try to give PopOS a proper run as a daily OS. I've been using Linux for several years as part of my web dev job so I'm certainly no noob in terms of Linux or PopOS. Everything is working perfectly fine except sound. For some reason no app or even the system will output to the internal speakers. The headphone jack works fine. I've been Googling for hours and tried many different things but no joy. I've installed the PulseAudio Volume Control app as suggested online. In the Output tab the Speakers show as unavailable. If I select them and then use the volume up and down it does output a little boop tone to indicate volume change. So, the speakers are definitely working. Using inxi -A command I can see that it is loading and using the snd_hda_intel driver. The actual audio chipset / model is Conexant CX20751/2. I've tried setting the model to generic, auto and ideapad within the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file but still nothing. The system always defaults to outputting to the headphone jack even though there's nothing connected to it. I'm really hoping there's something I can do to get the speakers working. It's a real pain and annoyance to not have any audio. I've attached screenshots showing the output of the above-mentioned apps and commands. Reading online apparently, it's to do with a change in Ubuntu where they switched from Pulseaudio to Pipewire? The laptop is a Lenovo IdeaPad 510 15ISK-80SR. It's fresh install of PopOS and fully up to date. Any ideas? I'm at a loss. Thanks Thomas

Hi, The TLDR of this is: I have TWO brand new Corsair RM1000e PSU's, both of them cause horrendous audio distortion yet very low volume on my old Z170A with 6700K. Reverting to a 650w Corsair fixes the issue EVERY single time. And the weird bit? It (They/Both PSU's!) do the exact same on another (Same model/BIOS etc) MOBO! --------------------------------- The small (Very, very weird!) story and the setup built in 2015/16?: CPU: Intel 6700K. GPU: MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X. >>> PSU: ANTEC EDGE 650W. MOBO: MSI Z170A Gaming M7. RAM: 32GB G-Skill. From when I built it, until a few months ago? All was well, but I got an itch to upgrade the GTX 1080. I bought a 3080TI for decent money and thought...I better think about a PSU upgrade, everything was ruinning great for now. Then while live streaming and going on a smoke break, I turned around to see the whole PC was completely black. Wouldn't turn on, completely dead. The PSU looked to have died, (Man, I loved that ANTEC PSU) Wasn't giving any sign of power to MOBO. Fearing the worst, I wondered if it had taken anything with it. I promptly ordered a new PSU. The Corsair RM1000e. While waiting for it to arrive, I quickly hooked up a spare corsair 650w and tested that everything was alright. Thankfully I was soon watching vids, streams, all the usual. No probs. Just no gaming. The RM1000e turned up. Fitted it. Erm...Every 3.5mm audio out jack sounded horrendous. Horrendously distorted but very, very low volume. Tried different headphones (Inc new pair), different cables. Drivers, man...the damn realtek drivers. Nothing fixes the massive distortion inc on the front headphone jack. The optical out, bluetooth, and the HDMI out audio all sound perfect. I threw the 650w PSU back in, guess what. No audio issues. Back to the RM1000e, audio issues. I requested a replacement. It arrived. Guess what? Exactly...the same issue. I now have two of them here, and both are causing this issue and I'm completely baffled. I have had the 650w IN/OUT/IN/OUT and it replicates the issue/fixes the issue every time. I then presumed it must be the MOBO. Found one used on ebay at £80 quid. It arrived today. Guess what. Yep. Having gone through the nightmare of having my PC in bits all over the house, parts everywhere...I now have a second motherboard, exactly the same model and...Yes. The issue is exactly the same! I'm so tired and confused. EDIT: Not only that, but upon plugging in mouse and keyboard, BOTH got stuck in the second MOBO. I've had this in the past with a cheap case USB port. I got one out with slipping an x-acto knife down the side, but the oither...had to break the little metal tabe off. Brilliant, £80 quid old useless MOBO an the problem still persists! I have been running at bare bones to eliminate things. Simply providing CPU power, GPU power, MOBO power. A single NVME with win10. On the second/same model MOBO, I had to screenshot all my original MOBO's BIOS, copied them to a damn USB stick, stuck em on a tablet, while throwing my CPU in second MOBOa, and then copying EVERY setting except...overclocks. Tried two different GPU's (GTX 1080/3080TI), two exact same motherboards, two brand new RM1000e power supplies. And both are causing the same issue. I am on the machine right now, using the 650w PSU but I won't risk any gaming. The audio on every output is perfect, crisp, clear and loud with this 650w unit, but of course...it's not enough to comfortably run everything. Can anybody please, please suggest what the hell's going on? I've been at this for days now. Why is the RM1000e seemingly incompatible with my setup? In fact, even a second Motherboard with different RAM, different GPU's etc etc. Is it a faulty batch? A batch of bad earths/ground? There's something that's not right

Hello everyone! I reach out to this forum to see if anyone can help me find a solution with my Xbox Wireless Headsets (that i don't have the usb that it's bought separately) and i use the headphones through my pc via bluetooth and it works well until i turn on the microphone and then all the audio i hear through it's glitching or like a popping noice (that as a note its sounds VERY DIFFERENTLY of what i record compared to what i hear) and i don't know what it is, i used it perfectly both the audio and microphone on an old laptop, now since i bought a pc i use it through a usb that can recieve a signal of bluetooth that it's the same requisit for using the headphones, the only way that the audio works normally is IF i turn off the microphone device of the wireless headset. The only that i had differently since my laptop is a new redragon camera 1080p that has integrated microphone and i don't know if that caused some missconfiguration on the setup I leave some music that i listen to that they can check how it sounds and some pictures of the devices that i have, both of them that are on are the supposedly the ones that should be on 2024-02-21-15-54-42.mp4 Sry for my broken english, im from argentina but i really do need help with this

Hi all, I'll try to keep it short but this is driving me insane. 6700K MSI Z170A GTX1080 ANTEC EDGE 650W PSU All has been fine since what 2016? Until I recently got a little needy and replaced the GTX1080 for a Gigabyte vision 3080TI. And yep, I risked the same PSU. It's been fine for a few months then the other night, boom, PC just turned off. No power, completely dead. I was thinking...well, that's probably the PSU dead, tried a spare 650w Corsair I had laying around, loosely wired up. Pefect, all weas well. SO...I ordered a new 1000w corsair ATX3.0 Corsair RM1000e (2023) PSU. Fitted it, and...Rear audio jack on motherboard very, very quiet and extremely distorted. I've stripped PC down to bare bones. Can't fix it any way at all, drivers, uninstalling devices etc...unless I plug in a spare 650w Corsair RM650 PSU?! The audio is perfect! How can a brand new PSU cause this infinitely repeatable issue? I can swap between PSU's and the issue is there/not there. All I'm powering is CPU 8 PIN, MOBO 24 PIN, 2X PCIE GPU. No SATA etc.

So recently I bought an RODE NT-usb mini, and I plugged it in, and all was working great. A couple days ago though I bought a new cable for it, so I can have better cable management, and after that my mic will barely pick up sound. It sounds normal and clear when I'm just barely touching my mic and talking, but as soon as I get more than 3 or 4 inches away it sounds dead quiet. My headset (Steelseries Arctis 7+) has a microphone, and when using that, everything works fine. I tried going back to the cable that it came with, but the issue persists even with that. I have messed with sound settings, making sure everything is set to max. I've tried various potential solutions that I've found from googling my issue a bunch, but to no avail. A couple days ago though, it started working again, and all was good, but then it went back to not functioning yesterday. Now just today, my headset mic did had the same issue, where it wouldn't pick up noise unless I was right next to it. That didn't last long though, only a couple minutes before it fixed itself. I haven't uninstalled/installed any programs that would be relevant to any of this as far as I'm aware, so I'd really appreciate it if any of y'all have any idea what's up.

Hello everyone, I recently upgraded my PC setup, moving from a mini ITX system to a larger one due to the size of my new graphics card. Along with a new case, I also decided to switch to a different motherboard. I chose to utilize a spare motherboard I had lying around, the ASROCK B550 Pro 4, which has seen previous use and worked flawlessly under my previous configuration. After reinstalling Windows and installing the necessary motherboard drivers, including the latest audio driver (Realtek_Audio(v6.0.9468.1_Nahimic)) downloaded from the ASROCK website, I attempted to connect my Logitech z407 2.1 speakers to the motherboard using the provided AUX cable, plugging it into the audio output socket on the IO plate (the one with the green circle around it). However, upon turning up the volume, all I hear is static and high-frequency garbled noise, regardless of trying other available sockets. Strangely, when I plug my Sennheiser headset into the audio plug on my Lian Li 216 case, which also uses an AUX connection, I encounter the same issue. Interestingly, I can achieve audio output if I connect my Logitech z407 speakers directly to my PC via Bluetooth. However, I'm under the impression that the audio quality via AUX should be superior to Bluetooth. So it is not something I am particularly happy with as a permanent workaround. Additionally, I primarily use a Fosi K5 Pro DAC for my headphones, connected to my PC via Type C USB at the back of the motherboard. Both this and the Logitech speakers issue seem to suggest that digital audio works fine, but there's a problem with analog connections. To rule out any issues with the AUX cable or connection, I tested it with my Steam Deck, where it worked flawlessly. Could this be a hardware problem, a software/driver issue, or something else entirely? I'd appreciate any insights or suggestions you might have! **System Specs:** - AMD Ryzen 5800X - ASROCK B550 Pro 4 - ASUS TUF Radeon RX 7900XTX - 16GB DDR4 RAM - 2TB NVMe SSD - Lian Li 216 ATX Case **Audio Setup:** - Logitech z407 2.1 Speakers - Fosi Audio K5 Pro DAC **BIOS:** - B550P4_3.40.

Just upgraded my GPU (old: Asus STRIX GeForce GTX 970 4 GB, new: Asus TUF GAMING OC GeForce RTX 4070 12 GB) and PSU along with it to match/be ready for near-future upgrades (old: Corsair CS450M 450 W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-modular ATX, new: Corsair RM750e 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX). Full current build: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/FTFvYN After the upgrade there's strong interferences in the audio jacks, not just a static hum, but crackles and beeps, plugging the headphone jack in/out yields a painfully loud crack. The interferences are the worst in the front panel jack (of the case), but also significant in the rear jack of the motherboard. Audio via the monitors (HDMI) is fine, as well as audio via Bluetooth. Tried moving the front panel cables away from everything else, to the point of pulling them all the way out of the case and holding them in the air, no effect. The audio connector on the motherboard sits only an inch or so above the PSU though, no other alternative. Right above it sits a PCIe Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Adapter, in case that could be relevant, but that one's not new. Put the old 970 GPU back in and the problem stayed the same. Put in the old 450W PSU back in (reusing the modular cables of the new PSU) and the issues were gone, all audio was fine. Put in the new 4070 GPU and 750W PSU again and the interferences were there again. Called the tech store and they suspected that it was probably a faulty PSU. Exchanged that, put the new one (same model) in and... same problem still. Aside from MacGyvering a PSU cover EMI shield out of tinfoil or something I'm out of ideas. Any pointers? Or are there any known news about a whole faulty batch of PSUs? Or is that model/line generally known for being not great quality? Or just higher wattage resulting in more EMI and the mobo/case connectors aren't shielded enough to handle that?

Hey everyone, So i finally decided I missed sports games enough to buy a PS5 slim. I didn't pay too much attention when I bought it but unfortunately sony in their infinite wisdom does not include a 3.5mm audio jack anywhere. In fact the only ports are USB-A, USB-C, ethernet (luckily) and HDMI.... So I piped the HDMI with video and audio signal to my monitor... which of course has no speakers because it's a gaming monitor... I thought i'd have to leave my beatuiful hifiman sundara's on the shelf and use a terrible PS5 headset everytime I used the thing until I realized my monitor has a audio passthrough... so I passed it through to my line in on my PC. With a few software tweaks things were running. I had to keep my PC on in order for the soundcard to play the audio through the speakers but at least both devices could use the same speakers. The problem is... with all these connections and chords even in a tight space the signal really loses steam... I can hear it sure but it isn't that rich beautiful audio I've become accustomed to with my Edifier MR4s for speakers and my HIFIman Sundara's. I was going to buy an amp/ dac anyways for the sundaras because they have low volume problems too... that's just due to the impedance though so I expected to have to do that. I'm wondering if it's safe to run a red and white RCA chord to RCA on the back of an amp/ dac output. Then run a RCA to 3.5mm chord from the input to connect the pc. And another aux chord from the Monitor audio passthrough to the 3.5mm input on a amp/dac and then connect the HIFIMAN Sundara's to the front headphone output weather it's quarter inch or 3.5mm doesn't matter sundara's have both. I essentially need an amp dac that can handle the input of a PS5 slim as well as the input from my PC and then output the audio signal to either the headphones or the speakers. I'll never be using the PS5 at the same time as the PC and vice versa. I'll also never need the speakers to play at the same time as the headphones... I'm just really struggling understanding all these audio things. I've also read that if you have powered speakers not bookshelf speakers like i do that you aren't supposed to run them through another amp/dac beecause it can brick them. I ordered the Fiio k5 pro which on their product page says you can run the RCA from your powered speakers to it... so idunno if that is true or not.... I'm just throughly confused and in need of tech tips. PLZ send help. BTW LTT your deskmat is awesome I love it! Thanks for getting me into PC building it's been a great hobby to get into while I heal from a car crash.

I'll try to keep this very short. I have been using Razer kraken TE headset for a while. Wanted to get in ear headphones to try out as my friend loved his. When I plug these into the 3.5 aux port on the front of my computer, the sound is clear and loud. But I wanted to use the Razer USB audio controller for the chat mixer switch. This is what causes high amounts of static, lower audio quality and distortion specifically at lower volumes. Ive changed quality settings of the output in system sounds, tried multiple usb ports. All the research and tries I have attempted are no help and I am at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated :).

HI there, It's been month that my audio device went missing on the first boot and need a restart to make it appear. But, when it goes to sleep and hibernation the audio is missing again and I need to restart it. Downgrading and upgrading the driver didn't fix it, even using High Definition Audio. Even after new fresh of windows install make no difference. The audio is Conexant SmartAudio HD, using other device driver makes no different too. Is it hardware issue or newer windows that messed up audiodg? From the device events it said "requires further installation" but the driver program said it successfully installed.

Somehow it seems like somewhere audio that is supposed to go to my output/headphones is also going to my microphone, idk how but its a huge problem if im recording anything using my mic. If its helpful im using a philips shp9600 with a v moda boom pro attached to it, my motherboards an asrock z690 phantom gaming 4. heres a test i did to illustrate my issue. mic audio recording: mic_audio.mp3 pc audio recording: original_audio.mp3 I am pretty much 99% sure this has nothing to do with audio anything happening externally like my headphones being echoed and picked up by my mic, and rather the issue is somewhere internal like some software issue or incompatible hardware. The recordings just sound so similar its hard to say otherwise. so far ive tried: updating and reinstalling headphones and microphone drivers, (thats it :/) mic_audio.mp3 original_audio.mp3

So recently i picked up an audio interface which the sole purpose was for me to plug my condenser microphone in with phantom power and power my headphones / iem like a soundcard, so i can use it as an audio jack. I i paired my iems with an ear monitor pack (behringer pm1 ear monitor pack as an example), and i run it into a 4 way spiltter, and then it goes on the phone s jack on my audio interface. It works great... atleast for listening to music, when i play fps games like cs it does not have ANY directional audio, ive been researching this issue nd all i came across was using equalizer apo for or something to recreate surround sound as if you just plug headsets to your 3,5 jack on your own motherboard, i was wondering about this because i saw a youtuber named optimum tech plugged his iem to an audient evo 4, which is basically like a mini audio interface, and he doesnt have any issues i dont think using it as like a usb soundcard. Do any of you guys have any solution to this? (i put my paint diagram below)

Hi. I powered on my PC today and in addition to my raspberry pi suddenly being inaccessible on my network (which a reboot fixed, but I'm perplexed by), my speakers make loud static sounds constantly whenever they are on. I mention the raspberry pi thing just for context. From google images, it seems like I have either the Logitech Z625 or the Logitech Z623. Not sure what my exact model is- I cannot find it. But they looks exactly like those models. The speakers are powered from the wall/outlet and have a power button. As long as they are plugged in to any outlet (i've tried multiple) and the power button is on, they make noise. I've tried turning off my PC's PSU switch, unplugging the speakers from my PC/Motherboard, reseating the cable connections, and I also tested a pair of headphones plugged into my front audio jack on my case, and those work perfectly fine. I dont understand how all of this can happen when it was all working fine 1-2 days ago. Any help is very appreciated.

TLDR, Mic’s coil picking up EMI. Is there a solution? Hi, I'm new to the forum. A few days ago I bought a RODE Podmic, a dynamic mic, to replace AT2020, hoping to reduce the audio leak from my K702 open back headphones entering the mic that cause an echo problem to my friends over Voip. It did work, but introduced a new problem. I think the coil in the mic is picking up EMI from my PC. The following are two examples. EMI IDLE.mp4 The first video is when the system is idle. Normally I couldn’t hear the noise, but once I move the mic closer to the PC case, or point the mic towards the case, the noise became audible. EMI GPU.mp4 The second one is when GPU is on load, in this case a game. The noise is audible when the mic is away from the case, and gets even worse when being close to it. You can hear the pitch shift with the game’s framerate (though I didn’t show it cuz bf2042 no longer allows RTSS overlay after changing its anticheat engine), and when ever I switch the scene, the pitch shift as well. I’m surprised nobody seems to encounter this issue since all the info I can find that related to this topic are four post from different forum and only one of them seems to have the same cause as mine which is this one: https://linustechtips.com/topic/1511291-trying-to-deal-with-gpu-coil-whine-in-microphone-audio/ Spec list if that helps: CPU: 5950x MOBO: ROG Strix B550-E GPU: Inno3D iCHILL X4 3080Ti PSU: Cooler Master V1200 Platinum 1200W Case: Fractal Design Define 7 XL Black TG Audio Interface: MOTU M4 (Podmic connected to mic in 1) XLR cable: Third Party MOGAMI 2534 with Neutrik connectors I tried using an in line mic preamp, and switching XLR cables, didn’t affect the noise at all. So the noise must be introduced on the mic, not the cable or the audio interface. It’s not audible to human ears (except GPU’s physical coil whine), so it must be EMI. It’s not affecting my AT2020 which is a condenser mic, so it must have something to do with how dynamic mics work.

good morning everyone, i have a monster audio rockin roller 270-X that's been decent to me up until recently, looking and other topics but have came up short handed due to the difference in models. it seems like a common occurrence for these things to "blowup" my speaker stopped charging and working. after removing the back panel and removing the battery it seems okay and take a charge externally. the board that receives the power and sends it to the unit has at least 2 resistors blown I'm guessing the battery could have a short circuit and overcharged? anyway I'm looking for a fix, I am unable to source a replacement board, along with trying to get a replacement from monster or at least a part number. any help is appreciated!

MAINBOARD: ASUS ROG STRIX B650E-F CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D GPU: Asus Rog Strix RX 480 8GB (from old PC) RAM: Corsair Vengance RGB 32GB 6000MHz CL30 SSD1: Samsung 990 Pro 2 TB SSD2: Corsair MP600 PRO XT 2 TB PSU: MSI A850G PC-CASE: BeQuiet Silent Base 802 HEADSET: Logitech Pro X (with cable) Hello. I am new to this stuff and can't articulate myself like I'd like to, so I beg your pardon in advance and hope you can help me nonetheless. I bought a brand new computer and while I listen to music on Spotify and Youtube i get random sound popping and/or microstutter. On my old PC I never had such problems. Sometimes when I listen music on Spotify I get randomly some kind of microstutter (sound dropout) for just like a millisecond on my USB Headset. And if I play the same part again it's not reapearing again. I tried a lot of solutions like deactivating USB ports I don't use, updating all drivers I have, try out every USB port I have on my PC (mainboard and PC Case) and USB Headsets of other manufactures. When I listen with some AUX Headphones I don't get such problems. So my question is if I got a problem with my Mainboard, if it's a problem with a driver of the manufacturer or even something I never thought about til now.? Thanks in advance

I’m sorry for the wall of text, it’s complicated. On my desk I have: two monitors (it happens with both), a laptop (+ dock), a desktop, and a mixer (and some other stuff but I don’t think those are relevant? feel free to ask if you think they might be). Whenever I plug a monitor into the laptop (or rather, its dock), the audio from that same laptop gets noisy, regardless of which monitor, video in, video out, or audio out. The desktop has no such issues, by using my mixer I verified it is only the audio from the laptop. That being said, if I unplug the monitors from the desktop the noise goes away. So, both computers being connected to a monitor (can be the same or different ones) creates the noise. Bypassing the mixer has no effect Now to make things more complicated: I have earbuds with a mic, I use those old school audio Y-spitters to separate the mic from the audio, one at the earbud end and one at the other end to plug into my iPad (that way I can still pause by using the button in my earbuds and put my mixer in between on the audio side so I can listen to my desktop, laptop, iPad, etc. all at the same time), whenever I unplug the mic side the buzz goes away and returns when I plug it in and it does not need to be the iPad, I can also plug the mic into the laptop or desktop, it creates the same noise, it can even be plugged into just the splitter without the iPad. Furthermore, to make things really weird, I can unplug everything (even power) except the video cable from the monitor while keeping the noise (though it is stronger with power connected). The noise could probably best be described as a whine, similar to coil whine, but less stable (it varies in pitch and volume). Here, have a listen: Weird noise.m4a So, to summarise, both computers being connected to a monitor (can be the same or different ones) AND connecting the mic from my earbuds to anything creates the noise, bypassing the mixer does nothing, the noise is only present from the laptop, it happens regardless of power to the monitors and desktop (laptop can’t be unplugged because the dock only works when powered) I’m at a loss, if anyone could point me in a direction where it starts making even the slightest bit of sense, I would be very happy... perhaps interesting: Laptop: HP ProBook 6560b Dock: HP 2012 90W Docking Station Monitor 1: LG 27GP850 Monitor 2: HP Z23 G2 Mixer: Behringer Xenyx 502 Earbuds: Apple EarPods Desktop: Custom

I have been working for this church for a few months now and am in charge of their AV. All of a sudden our power amplifier Crown CDI Drivecore 4 | 300 has given me the errors of "ch2 DCLE Detected" and "High Voltage Rail Warning" and also cut the audio to the speakers throughout the building. No matter how much research I do I cant find a fix for them. I have read every article and read the manual. I have reseated all of my connections and even completely unplugged channel 2 input and output but am still getting the same results. I don't know what to do but this has to be ready by tomorrow.

Not sure if this is the right subforum, but its still tech related and that's partially what i need help with. I have a 2022 Impreza Sport hatchback, and I was looking for something that would improve the audio setup. It has a good sound to start, but when listening to things like heavy metal, the heavy and constant bass/low notes tend to mush together with everything else, and I was wondering if there was a small subwoofer or something that I could redirect the lower notes to. I don't know much about audio at all, so if there's a better solution than that, let me know. IDK if this is important or not, but I bought the car new with all the warranties, so something that would potentially void that would probably be off the table. I also don't want to spend a crazy amount of money. Any help/recommendations are appreciated, thanks!
