    Help me understand USB/DACxAMP for my desktop? I just recently bought speakers.

    I mean - $3000ish for the PC without monitors but I get what you mean. I guess I could drop more but I didn't think that it would be valuable with the Swans given they're a lower end speaker system compared. I guess I could raise the price and try to get better quality/value, say 400 dollars...

    Help with understanding Ohms and Hertz?

    Help with understanding Ohms and Hertz?

           What would you recommend then for a decent on/around ear portable headphone then? I've the Fischer Audio's but they seem to lack a decent bass and the treble sounds really odd to me. I like them for light listening occasions but they mostly collect dust in my closet. Thankfully my dad...

    Help with understanding Ohms and Hertz?

    Harman Kardon Soundsticks III and a Creative Sounds Sound Blaster ZX sound card:

    I was looking for something to compensate for my crappy TV speakers, I have about $150 to spend, I know not a lot but I am a college student and I am currently saving up for a pair of Alpha Dog's by Mr.Speaker headphones. So I searched and came across some Harman Kardon speakers in my price...
