Well, having read up that in this price range, a soundcard would be a better option than an external DAC (correct me if I'm wrong), I'm thinking of replacing my current Auzen X-fi Prelude with a better source.
I need the gaming aspect but after a bit of experimentation, I think a bit of Dolby Headphone and crossfeed from my H5 would do the job (again correct me if you have a differing opinion).
If I do upgrade an amp later on, I can easily buy a cheap X-fi to counter the lack of crossfeed from the amp.
I'm thinking of the HT Omega Claro (sonic differences between the Claro and the Claro Plus?) but any other soundcards that are Dolby-Headphone capable can also be suggested
Another option of course is opamp-rolling the front opamp of the Prelude?
Would that be the best option?
