Hi guys,
Currently my set up is
Computer line out -> Heed Canamp -> AKG K701.
I'm using an 3.5mm to RCA adapter to connect the computer to my amp.
Since my computer has a decent sound card (Asus Xonar D2X), I was wondering if using a 3.5mm -> RCA adapter is okay; or could I do better by buying an external DAC and use the toslink output from my soundcard to get
Computer toslink -> DAC -> amp -> headphones.
I checked around and I think the Beresford TC-7520 DAC seems to be in the affordable range for me. I was wondering if any one has experience or suggestions for this. Thanks alot guys.
