I'm looking for a new soundcard. I usually use headphones (ATH-A900), but also have a set of 5.1 surround speakers. I listen to mp3s encoded using EAC and lame at --alt-preset standard.
I had my eyes on the delta410 until I realised that it didn't have a headphone out. Is the Audiophile USB worth $200, or are there better (possibly less expensive) alternatives?
Thanks
EDIT: Crap, just found out that I'd need a preamp to boost the signal before it gets to the USB card. Could anyone recommend a cheap and effective solution?
