But.... my old Win 7 computer seems to have fallen on hard times - all of a sudden everything I record (and old recordings I listen to) have crackling/popping that adjusting the buffer to the max of 1024 (horrible latency) don't get rid of.
Interesting about the serial number...I don't recall having any issues like that.

Can you glean from Windows Task Manager what's causing the buffering? Is the CPU getting pegged? Is the hard disc getting bogged down? Maybe try a different USB port on your PC?

That way when you adjust the volume both subwoofer and main speakers will track the volume correctly.
Thanks for the suggestion. That's actually how I'm set up. I'd rather not have the splitters, but I don't have a choice.
