Sorry for making so many friggen topics here that are similar in nature, but I think this is the last one for a good while and then I can actually 'contribute' to other topics
I want my main source to be the PC. I have K701s and an RSA Hornet M (possibly a different amp but that's for the most part irrelevant). I know I need a sound card with an optical/whatever input and a DAC. Will the sound card's optical affect the sound of my rig? I ask because I'd like to have a nice DAC, amp and phones, and run them to the AV-710's optical...but if that will somehow bottleneck the SQ I will save for a different sound card. I would have just went USB, but I've heard the quality suffers/a bunch of other stuff I didn't really understand -_-.
So there's that question, and is there anything else I need to know before I start dropping payloads of cash?
