Hello all!
I want to upgrade my laptop audio and I don't want to spend much money - cause I don't need much either.
I have: -Cambridge Soundworks: Megaworks THX 2.1 speakers with digital and analog input. I prefer analog input
-Technics analog amp from 1977 which is really great
-Alessandro MS-1 woodied
Laptop --> Techincs amp --> speakers and MS-1
Now, while I'm pleased with overall sound, I can hear noise coming from laptop on speakers and headphones which I want to get rid of and I wouldn't mind some improvement in sound quality (punchyer bass, clearer sound - mainly for SPEAKERS). Oh yeah, and it has to be USB device!!
I like minimalism so I considered these options:
3. Asus Xonar U3
4. Behringer UCA 202
Each of these I can find for 50$ shipped to my country. If anyone knows which is the best or knows of something better for the same price (or if you have something used to sell for reasonable price) please advise! Thanks ppl!
