Hei fellow music lovers
So i have been doing some research to find out what i should get to compliment my ATH-M50 to maximize my experience while listening to music. I came across the following article which claims that it isnt really worth spending money on Soundcards or DACs if what you are looking for is better 'Sound Quality'. The article concludes that a $2 Realtek Audio Chip will sound exactly as good as a $2000 DAC! The extra money we are spending are for additional features, while the perceived sound quality stays the same.

So, I wanted to hear your opinion regarding the findings of the given article. What do you guys think?
happy listening
