Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knew which sound card(or other device) I should go with to listening to music on my PC.
Right now I'm using onboard audio which has the standard outlets and a digiout.
I'm trying not to spend more than $50-$75 but I'll go higher if need be.
I listen to all kinds of music and game(but I'm not really worried about gaming audio quality)
I'm listening almost exclusively through headphones, so I don't need anything more than 2channel source(I'm not saying that I don't want a 5.1 or 7.1 sound card or whatever, I'm just saying that it isn't required)
I'm seeing all these other sound cards on the market, but I don't know anything about them. I guess with my limited budget I'd be stuck with like an X-Fi sound card, but I was wondering if anyone know if there's anything else out there that I don't know about.
p.s. I have an old(like 10 year old) Creative Labs SB Live sound card in my old computer. Should I stick that in this for now and use that until I find a more permanent solution?
