Soo.. I have decided to purchase a Sony mdr-cd3000.. I will probably order it in 2 or 3 days from audiocube.
I did more reading and came up with more questions. I hope some members here will be able to shed some lights to them.
Question 1.) I was adviced that my sound card (audigy X-gamer) wasn't good enough for music; just good for games. That same person said I should get an m-audio card for music and dvds.. so basically would anyone care to elaborate on this? Also is the cdrom efficient? or do I need to upgrade?
Question 2.) I am thinking of buying the 350 dollar amp that everyone is raving about (Perreaux SXH-1). I was wondering on how this whole amp thing works. Does it just enriches the sound? Basically I was wondering if it is worth it.
Question 3.) I would like to achieve surround sound with the headphone. Someone told me you can achieve it using software decoder like WinDVD. He wasn't sure if the same thing will work with a DVD player. To be honest I rather keep it all on the computer. Would a nice hardware dvd-decoder give me surround sound?
Question 4.) Do they have cable upgrades for the cd3000 or is it already highquality? I am assuming the latter.
Thanks for reading!
