Yeah, okay, thats true.
I don't listen to music very loud, so there might be some sense in saving money for that I do not need powerful speakers.
I've read now, that getting a soundcard is obsolete, since games already have a headphone feature built in where you can select headphones as the output device and the game renders it like a soundcard would. Does anyone know if that works better or equivalent to a soundcard?
//edit:
@cel4145: are there any products you could recommend by these brands?
//edit2:
The products I found by these brands are all USB DACs. This might conflict with my plan to route from the soundcard over S/PDIF to the DAC. Or am I missing something?

The wharfedale diamond 10.1 speakers are almost equally expensive as the DALI Zensor 1 in my country.
