After dedicating most of my musical enjoyment to my home setup, I finally decided to get some use out of the large collection of MP3's on my PC. I am very new to setting up a decent PC system, but I have an E-MU 1212M coming in a couple of days!
Do I need to get any additional cables?
I am going to be using a portable amp, either the SR-71, or the AE-1. Is an external DAC a must for optimal sound quality?
Please take me through some first steps at putting together this system!
[size=medium]Major Update!![/size]: Looks like my luck ran out, because when I opened up my PC to install the 1212M, due to the 2 Nvidia cards running in SLI, I now only have space for 1 PCI card!!
Looks like I will have to downgrade to the 0404!
