Hello,
Can anyone provide me some assistance with my new Intona Industrial Edition (Black) please? My setup is as follows:
Desktop PC --- LH Labs LightSpeed 1G 1.0M ---> Intona Industrial --- LH Labs LightSpeed 1G 1.0M ---> Schiit Gungnir USB
The problem I am experiencing is that I cannot establish any sort of connection with the Intona. When connected to the USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports of my desktop or laptop, Windows 10 immediately reports the device as "unrecognized." Both machines are running the latest Windows 10 "creators" update.
The USB 3.1 ports on my desktop seem like they are going to work, because I can hear the Gungnir's relay switching on and off, but then a solid connection is never established and the Intona goes into "suspend" mode. Are my USB cables the problem? 2.0M is the shortest amount of cable I can have between my PC and the Gungnir. Is 2.0M of cable just too much? Or is there something else at play here?
EDIT: I grabbed a completely random printer cable from storage and discovered something interesting. I will illustrate:
Desktop PC --- Random Printer Cable ---> Intona Industrial --- LH Labs LightSpeed 1G 1.0M ---> Schiit Gungnir USB [THIS DID NOT WORK]
Desktop PC --- LH Labs LightSpeed 1G 1.0M ---> Intona Industrial --- Random Printer Cable ---> Schiit Gungnir USB [THIS DID WORK]
I confirmed that neither of the LH Labs cables are faulty as well, so it must be something weird about the LH labs cables that prevents them from working properly between the Intona and the DAC. In that case, does anyone have any quality USB cables that they recommend for using along with the Intona?
Thanks!

I also find that USB cables make a difference -experiment. Also - you might have to look into getting the firmware upgrade. (I'm currently on the list to get mine updated).
