Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.

Really just trying to avoid plugging these in directly to the PS4 controller due to interference and audio quality.
I then plug the headphones directly into DSS and the plug the Mic into Syba (this leaves the sound output of syba unused). Lastly, you need to change PS4 settings under devices to output chat to "TV/amplified" to hear the chat sound (otherwise it sends chat through the syba output, which has nothing attached).
PS4 optical -> DSS optical PS4 USB -> DSS Sybe USB -> DSS front USB Headphone Audio (green plug) -> DSS Headphone Mic (red plug) -> Syba PS4 settings -> devices -> audio devices -> output chat audio to TV/amplifier
P.S. Don't use the Dolby decoding (use pass thru) otherwise chat audio will sound strange and typically be much quieter.
Checking my settings: * Sound and Screen > Audio Output > Primary Port > HDMI (though this doesn't seem to make a difference for me since I'm playing on a monitor with no speakers) * Devices > Audio Devices > Input > None (this seems to be the problem) * Devices > Audio Devices > Output > TV or Amplifier
Checking the DSS: * Optical out > DSS * PS4 USB > DSS * DSS > Syba > Mic * DSS > Headphones * DSS lights: Plex / Digital In (default) * DSS lights: Dolby Bypass / Digital In (didn't even know this was a button until your comment above, but it doesn't seem to make a difference)
I guess I'll have to try another USB sound card. The only other thing I can think of is that I'm using a PS4 Pro and maybe they changed how the USBs work? Who knows but I'll try and keep my post updated.
