Alistair_1972 Posted January 10 Posted January 10 Hi folks I have an ifi Zen DAC V2 which I purchased last year and which like very much, but I'm having connection issues. The usb 3.0 cables work perfectly well with my Topping D10S, so it *don't think* it's them I also updated the firmware to the latest version... works intermittently. Any advice or is it simply a faulty unit? Any tips/advice gratefully accepted Thanks
Chigurh Posted January 10 Posted January 10 Maybe the Zen DAC isn't getting enough power through the USB port. It might need another power supply connected to the 5 volt input.

Chigurh Posted January 11 Posted January 11 (edited) Have you got another USB cable that you could try? I have found that the Ugreen ones on Amazon are well made and inexpensive. https://www.amazon.com.au/Ugreen-10372-Cable-Metre-Length/dp/B00OZG26RU/ref=sr_1_18?crid=1OFQUIH9RTSL4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.IrDx-HGTHX1Cl40A7ykIfPMkxYzHpqS83EeIOGxn5-C2_Jha1S9LVLOgGgO-SbePrcz6ezpQw7zHPjoGqNb_FyiAsT8O0GUt2gwiG7T4XYf4v1OPVANTin7NtIV_aaWaUdNiDfmiqDJe4t_MRKDFerpB49BFC1VnMq-40bxFimghfBKUnjizPdiJTMvbB1v1cBaxq6JzmvuAjGHTss6JOZ7EZhvgYvwmiXcocInV_1jZrfP_6x54srLGoyldrlw7HtTej1P4-vJALGDkva7yGHEGsONzHFBYVVuYuEFGOBvAfOJjssaoNCkdUB5pOpn8xKSunmuhI_-hbXPG3VUB8AiM3wFArN4APLq5XeBU-WIjjBGQ4obvXeh_6x8KdXW3Soz9iirukGSKYAZrJPZxuf8qEh5JATH4O1iJKvmBUO7FxE1hQIkq6X4vSCiJDFIF.sXz6TgUFy2dHjgh9gJSiQ6iVjhUuIG3gQGzYWuai3vk&dib_tag=se&keywords=usb+3+cable+type+b&qid=1736557390&sprefix=usb+3+cable+type+b%2Caps%2C353&sr=8-18 Edited January 11 by Chigurh
