I have the same problem with the U5 (it turns on with a warm-up hair dryer). Can you tell me if it is possible to solve the problem of U5 in the same way by soldering the capacitors?

Probably my Denver BTL-31 at 3 am 💀💀💀💀

My denver BTL - 31 probably at 3 am 💀💀💀💀💀💀:

Thank you! Because of this video, I could fix my Xonar U7. The soldering on my U7 was rather bad so i could simply take these off the board with a tweezer and a little force. Works flawlessly again!

Just removed the left capacitor and it now starts instantly again. Before that, i tried to plug it in on different USB ports on my mainboard. Some worked, some didn't. It seemed like the newer Usb Ports with Usb 3.1 worked while older versions of Usb didn't. Maybe this information helps others.

Chinese also make a fake Keysight GPIB-USB adapter complete with Keysight CD (who knows what spyware you are getting from it). Everyone of those sold on eBay as new is a fake. Mine broke down in less than a year. You get what you pay for. The real Keysight adapter has deep knurling on the tie down screws.

if its working fine then why its fake.

still working?

I think no matter it is fake or original, as long as it works for our need, then it's fine to me.

I added a 3.3k ohm resistor between pin 1 (oscillator drive signal) of the CM6632 chip and ground, seems reliable for now even when chilled with freeze spray. I think the transistor in the chip is really weak and unable to pull the line low so this gives it a hand to cross the low threshold.

The Mk2 uses the CM6632AX chip instead of just CM6632A, I guess it's the same chip but with the issue fixed. And Asus decides that's worth calling it "Mk2", lol

My Denver Bluetooth speaker sounded like this 💀

Hadn't used it for years and today it didn't start (June 2023). Removing capacitors didn't work; warming with hair dryer worked. I write this just for statistics.

Does it work ok? Does it work with Windows 10? Do you need some specific software to use it? There are several ebay suppliers at around US$100, does that seem to be in the ballpark you paid?

LOL It works! I just removed those two capacitors and everything is working perfectly! Thanks a lot!

You are my hero today, finally i know what's happening to my sound card, regards from Spain.

temp low still not work ,

Hello there and thanks a lot for the video. I removed both as you've shown and it worked. Does it still work for you after some time has passed? Thanks!

The card start working after deleting of these capacitors, but now I hear "usb device connected" sound every 5-10 sec

my old Xonar U7 was sitting in my drawer for 4 years and you just saved it. didn't even need to heat anything, sharp point metal tweezers from the fixit kit were enough to gouge those resistors out with ease and zero damage. damn.

Mine sadly stopped working again after some time. I've done a lot of hacking, changed the crystal, modified the load capacitors, removed the resistor parallel with each CLK pin, using external generator for clock, measuring different power rails and haven't found anything that would fix it. I even went as far as contacting Asus. Ofc companies don't give a damn and wont tell the actual difference between the "MK1" and MK2 I managed to get to a state where i can put the soundcard into the fridge for 10 min and reproduces the issue What I've concluded doing my debugging is it is indeed related to the IC and not the crystal. If heating either of the top edge corners of the IC the circuit will start operating again but not as easy to reproduce if heating in the bottom of the IC Buying a new IC is just so expensive so i sadly is out of ideas and might give up on mine. I've gone though multiple pictures of the MK2 and the old version and have not been able to find any obvious difference

Thanks!! Worked for me :)

1:51 just an FYI, this Power Profiler 2 can NOT be used with 12V, even in Ampere mode. You are limited to 5V max under all circumstances.

Saved me from throwing away this card.Thanks man!!

当你移除这两个之后，冷却一段时间后仍然无法识别。但加热后仍可以正常使用，所以我认为你的判断不准确，应该尝试更换晶振。

I tried this, removed both of them with force, its not broken further but its still blinking... I'm using hair drier to heat it up to function again. I may buy U7's mkii version (I hope this problem does not exist on that)... after all these years no usb multichannel dac out there to top this on price/performance. edit: btw mine has passed the method of just touching on quartz to function several years ago.. now it needs hot air to work. maybe thats why this method didnt work on my device.

Thank you, ı had the same problem ı solved the the problem this video. it worked , echolon series is mine

that noise is common on the speakers

AMEN

blUEtOOth mOdE?

ok boomer
