Alright, so I was previously planning on getting studio monitors rather than headphones, but I listen to a lot more music than watch tv/movies, so I can get a cheap 2.1 set of speakers for those things (PC is center for all of this)...
I have $800 for an entire setup, which I know isn't much here, but it's what I have to work with and the budget won't go up for a while...Could you all recommend headphone + soundcard or dac + amp? Most of the music I listen to is Jack Johnson, Old 97s, Ben Harper, etc, but I do listen to rap/hip-hop and classical when studying, so I need a good all around set...
I was thinking Keces DA-152 (dac+amp) ($475)...and then headphones.....yeaaa, i'm pretty clueless as to what will work well with the music i have...any advice at all is appreciated...
(and sorry for posting so many questions last few days, i was going back and forth with speakers and headphones so anyone who responded to those, dont hurt me...)
