Hi Fellow members..

Really hope you can help with some simple advice,Re inexpensive DAC for my Dell Studio (32 bit) laptop which feeds a pair of Audioengine A5 active speakers.I currently use the Behringer UCA-202 Interface-USB in RCA out

The UCA-202 was suggested on another forum to improve the signal from the Laptop(I was using a cheap headphone out jack to audio in on A5s.....Sorry if i do not get the terminology right

I am using some very good RCA cables,from UCA-202-Interface To-->audio in.. on A5s] maybe a touch to good for this simple set up..but these were purchased with something else in mind?which really did not work.

I was wondering about upgrading to a DAC in place of the Behringer UCA-202 Interface,so would appreciate some DAC suggestions,also the best method of connecting to my laptop?if the Behringer UCA-202 Interface is felt not suitable for some reson?

I am aware of the likes of FUBAR & NU-FORCE& Other[size=small] [size=small]DACs[/size][size=small] [/size], which seem well thought of and nicely priced,maybe one of these may fit the bill?[/size]

really hope you can help...after wasting a lot of money on over hyped products? I just wish now to keep it simple

All The Very Best
Steve

I use a Audio-gd fun verison A and sounds like absolute heaven with my A5's. Excellent soundstage and imaging. Great tonality. Im very happy with this combo!

Hi Again
I remebered after posting my reply ..that I had heard of Audio-gd products..went to site then linked to UK supplier but they are a bit rich for my taste..I have just sold a LITTLE DOT IV SE at a loss..so am not wishing to go down that road (price wise again)..
But I take your word for it I bet they are very good.
 
all the best Steve

Yeah, its definitely cheaper ordering directly from audio-gd.
