    Burson Conductor - DAC/amp successor to the HA-160D

    Hmm very strange. I can't get TOSLINK to work on the burson conductor for the life of me. USB output works perfectly though, which is strange considering USB needs special drivers. I don't want to derail this thread too much so I made a post under computer audio -> ...

    Need help troubleshooting TOSLINK sound output into DAC. USB sound output works,

    Do Soundcards make a difference on cheaper/mid range speaker systems.

    Quote: There is a little bit of a difference. My lossless music does sound just a bit better when it's routed through the burson to the speakers.  I think I'm still sticking to my headphones for quality listening time =P

    Do Soundcards make a difference on cheaper/mid range speaker systems.

    Do Soundcards make a difference on cheaper/mid range speaker systems.

    Hello head-fiers,   I see that ASUS is having a soundcard rebate sale/special on their XONAR line. http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/00/00/21/43/30/73/2143307350._V134946288_.pdf I already have an external AMP/DAC so I am not particularly concerned with how the soundcard will...
