@MGRMLN Try plugging it into another computer/phone/tablet.
If multiple computers cannot recognize it, then the issue is likely the Onyx.
If only your MacBook cannot recognize it, then the issue is likely your MacBook.

Hello all,

Recently, my THX Onyx dongle just stopped being recognized by my MacBook Pro 16.
I plus it in and it basically is ignored by the computer and does not show up as a DAC or even a USB device at all.
Tidal, Roon and Apple Music do not see it either.
Any idea what is going on?

Thanks in advance!

Just thought the same thing!
Tried another Mac and it could not see it either.
I think the dongle has failed.
I contacted THX about it.

Thanks!

Sounds like it is broken.
