Help for a newby. I have an external HD with tons of flac music. I am going out of HP Laptop through USB into my Peachtree NOVA 300 integrated which has a USB input and goes into Peachtree's on board DAC. The sound is OK but not anything near my CD sound quality.
Questions:
Should I change the software (bypassing windows) I am using Winamp and I also have Aimp installed. I have the settings as WASAPI Exclusive. My pc volume controls are not being bypassed.
Is there some external piece of Hardware that will make a huge improvement and get me closer to CD sound? (Audiophilleo 1?)
Is there some type of hardware that I can plug my external into that will allow me to completely bypass the PC?
I am looking for my next step and need some of you smart Computer Audiophile's help.
Thanks, Drew
