I was hopeing to get some advice about what choice to make. I am currently useing the Nforce2 with Soundforce built into my motherboard.
My setup is as follows:
Kenwood Sirius H2A to Line IN
MP3s at 320 CBR. played with Coolplayer
Voice coms
going to a Headroom Cosmic amp with power supply upgrade(not the Base Station One).
going to a Byerdynamic DT-770Pro.
Eventual upgrade choice is to add a 5.1 suround sound setup for DVD watching but that is a future consideration (right now leaning towards Klipsch ProMedia as I have small avalible space or geting some bookshelf speakers and a sub.)
I would like to be able to listen to my music and still be able to hear voice coms. The way I have it setup now is to send the Sirius stream to the computer then use it to combine the voice coms and the music to be sent to my amp. If you know of a better way please speak up.
I'm not currently happy with the current setup and from my thinking the weakest part of my system looks to be my soundcard so I figure to upgrade that first. I'm very happy with the amp and headphones when I use them with my Sharps SR60 MD player/recorder so I think my discontent is in the computer end. I mainly listen to Rock/Country/Pop/RnB/BigBand/Classical with the largest amount spent listening to Rock and Classical. (about 1/3 each)
