Been lurking for ages, it is about time I said HELLO. This place is massive there is so much information here. I have read as much as I can read, and I am ready to build my first system. I think some of you are not going to like this much....
I guess this is also a massive thank you to everyone, this is such a great place, I hope I can give a bit back in the future. I will open a build thread when I have everything I need.
Some guy posted something on here about amplifiers literally just driving the headphone, and it is the differences in the sound that warrants their price. With this in mind, I have chosen to build a home theatre PC with an Essence sound card. I assume I can tweak the sound sufficiently if I need to. In my mind, modern electronics and IC chips are of a very high quality, certainly good enough for a first-timer. At the moment I am a massive iTunes user, it is so easy to use, plus I can use the iPhone remote. At the moment I have some Sony V6’s and an Audigy sound card. It is time for something even better than that!
I hope to install an Essence sound card into a HFX Micro M2 case, the nicest desktop case I could find. Look similar to K701’s? They look great together and hopefully will also sound great, at least for a first setup.
