The ShiverPeaks Audio Card S/CONN 14-05021 is a compact external audio interface designed for clear playback and precise conversion. It delivers a high signal-to-noise ratio of 105 dB and supports 24-bit/192 kHz analog-to-digital conversion and 32-bit/384 kHz digital-to-analog conversion. The unit connects via a USB host interface and provides a 3.5 mm headphone output, making it suitable for desktop systems, notebooks, and portable set-ups where improved audio fidelity is required. The device is finished in black and fitted with a short 0.13 m cable for convenient positioning and minimal desk clutter.

Advantages

The audio card offers a high dynamic range thanks to its 105 dB signal-to-noise ratio, which reduces background noise and preserves detail in both recording and playback. High-resolution conversion stages—24-bit/192 kHz for A/D and 32-bit/384 kHz for D/A—ensure accurate signal processing and improved tonal accuracy. A USB host interface enables plug-and-play connection to a wide range of devices, while the integrated 3.5 mm headphone jack supports direct monitoring and private listening. The compact form factor and short cable simplify integration into existing audio setups without occupying much space.

Suitable for

• Desktop audio playback and monitoring

How to use

Connect the audio card to a computer or compatible USB host using the built-in cable. After the operating system recognizes the device, select it as the default playback and/or recording device in the system audio settings or in your audio application. Plug headphones into the 3.5 mm output for direct monitoring. For optimal results, set the sample rate in your audio software to match the supported conversion rates (24-bit/192 kHz for recording, 32-bit/384 kHz for playback) and adjust input/output levels to avoid clipping.

Recommendations

Place the device close to the host USB port to keep the short cable tidy and avoid signal strain. Use high-quality headphones and set the operating system and application sample rates to match the device’s conversion capabilities for best fidelity. If you experience driver or recognition issues, check for available OS updates or consult the host system’s USB power and port compatibility.
