The D3 is essentially a very high end external sound card. Its components and implementation make it more capable than what might be built in to a computer, not to mention the benefit of moving those sensitive components external to the potentially noisy interior of your computer. All of this means the signal your speakers […]
Try removing all other USB devices temporarily, and try each USB port on your computer one at a time to see which one works best in your setup. USB audio needs quite a bit of bandwidth, so for best results ensure your D1 is on a “High-Speed” bus and not a “Full-Speed” bus.
In the Foobar control panel, under Preferences->Output, set the buffer length to minimum. A few customers have mentioned that WASAPI mode is more stable when used under WinAmp, so try that as well.
In your TV menu verify that “PCM STEREO” is selected and “DOLBY DIGITAL” is off.
Your D1 will sound great out of the box and will get better over time, however, it’s best to play music for 40 to 50 hours first before doing any critical listening.

On a PC, open the sound options through the control panel. Then choose Speakers – Audioengine D1” and select Properties. […]

Its components and implementation of those components make it more capable than what might be built into a computer, not to mention the benefit of moving those sensitive components outside and away from the potentially noisy interior of your computer. All of this means the […]
For starters, you will need to use a powered subwoofer with analog inputs (either RCA or 3.5mm). Simply connect the subwoofer to the RCA outputs found on the back of the HD6 speakers. If your subwoofer only has a 3.5mm input, you could pick up a 3.5mm to 2-Male RCA Adapter cable to bridge the […]
Yes! An AC wall outlet near the HD6 is all you need to power the W3 wireless receiver.
The HD6 is not officially supported by any universal remotes. However, you can use a learning remote to copy the signals being sent by the HD6’s remote. Check with the manufacturer of your remote to find out if it supports learning IR codes.
