This external sound card is really good until it ends up not working. This lasted only around 5 months where it suddenly stopped working. Which based off many other reviews on here, this sound card tends to die after a few months of use. It was a very disappointing thing for me. Using it with my PC38x and HD58x it was great, but as it died I am having to shell out a bit more cash for a better external dac/amp and be hopeful that it should last a lot longer than this.
I haven’t tried with the software based on previous reviews. Out of the box, it supplies a a smidge louder sound than out of my MacBook Pro M1’s headphone jack. The knob is tactile, so that’s neat. It works, but wouldn’t recommend, even at the discounted price.
I've been happy enough with the unit itself, except that the rotary knob doesn't consistently register clicks. I use this specifically at work just to have a mic input and a BIG volume knob, so in those respects, mission accomplished.
Ok, I bought this to have an external dedicated soundcard for my computer. Setting up/connecting it up to the computer is easy. As far as plug and play goes. MAJOR headache to get both the cans and microphone to work at the same time. As it is, them both working at the same time is random.
Upon first hooking up and installing drivers/software, I was unable to get the microphone working. And like others have said, the software on Epos' website "Epos Gaming Suite" is severeley lacking in and buggy as hell.
My setup is a custom PC runing windows 11. this external soundcard, and the PC38x and using various games.
Somehow, while troubleshooting. IE (reinstalling, plug/unplug, various sound settings) I was able to get the cans and the mic to work at the same time. It was "fixed" for a whole day, maybe two. This soundcard is certainly not plug and play as far as I can tell.
I do have to admit that the windows is not a fresh install. It also has the software for the internal soundcard installed, which COULD be causing the problem. My PC38X's do work when plugged into the onboard soundcard.
I could be wrong and am doing something incorrectly. I am not happy with this purchase. I will probably try and troubleshoot some more. I will also hook it up to another Win11 machine and a Win10 machine to see if that has any effect. If push comes to shove I will also probably end up doing a fresh OS install and possibly try a Linux distro to see how well it works.
Straight up stopped working after only 6 months for absolutely no reason. Changing to 1 star, stay away from this product.
Original review: OK value for the 59$.
No complaints on sound quality in games: clean and nice, no background noise, good positioning. Pairs well with my Epos H3, as well as heavier GSP 602.
The light is too bright, I ended up covering it with cloth. Software is usable, but quirky to say the least. EQ quality is meh, but it's nice to have, and you can tune your mic with an EQ as well, plus some useful noise reduction tools.
The "7.1 surround" function on the other hand is straight ridiculous: all it does is make your headphones sound like a 5$ pair of e-trash. I've tried 4 different headphones and fiddled with eqs and settings in several games, but it just sounds HORRIBLE no matter what you do. Just stick to normal stereo, it works fine.
Also, like some other reviewers, I've encountered random disconnects. Just a few so far, but it is concerning.
I used it for 45 minutes, it shut off randomly 3 times and i had to disconnect and reconnect it. Two loud audio pops that then caused it to get VERY quiet after, and with an already very quiet product it did not do any justice. I won't be ordering another Sennheiser Dac at all.
I use this on my racing sim rig with a V-moda BoomPro. I can't comment on its sound reproduction as I don't use it for music. I've personally had no issues with it.
