    PC Peripherals How do I get a external interface or extension that allows me to switch/swap connections from the mobo

    I have a decent mobo with good audio and also a tube amp. How do I get my mobo connections to my desktop, so that I can switch/swap headphones easily from my top of my table? Is there a device that would allow me to select running my tube amp + DAC and/or the mobo audio (switch kind of).

    CPU/Mobo Need a motherboard repairing company for a NAS

    Yes, I had bought both of them from the US. I hope things get better. But with the 1815+, Synology actually f****d their customers. The 1815 had an Intel Atom issue with meant all of those machines were 100% going to fail. Now couple that with no support, I am effectively sitting on a brick.
