Once you set up your computer following the above instructions it should recognize the
Grand Pre’s USB Audio DAC and default to it. If you unplug the USB connection you may
have to repeat some steps; this is not unusual.
Other useful tips...
For the best sound when listening to music from your computer, set your computer and music
program volume controls to maximum and use the Grand Pre volume knob or remote control
as the master volume control.
For critical listening to music from your computer, avoid keeping multiple programs open. It can
compromise the sound quality and even cause signal dropouts.
Give the Grand Pre adequate ventilation as it may get warm.
We’ll post articles and other helpful tips on getting the best sound from your computer’s music
