At first we thought this device was broken but it worked on our desktops but not our laptop. After LOTS of internet research and troubleshooting that didn't help, we finally figured out that a Windows 10 laptop needs a few more programs to fix Microsoft's default sound drivers. Once installed, this thing worked like a charm. (I'll edit this review if I can confirm the names of these two programs). Okay, the software needed to increase the preamp level on the two laptops I tested (HP Specter and
