Hi All,
I listen to a fair variety of sources...a CD player, a turntable and my PC, all routed through a traditional integrated amp (Onkyo A8087).
At the moment my PC to amp setup is pretty rough and ready. I use a cable with a 3.5 mm jack on one end and RCA plugs on the other to go from the sound card speaker out on the PC to the auxiliary on the integrated amp...I am looking to remedy this and have been looking at the following two items:
The Fii0 D3:

The HRT Music Streamer II:

I was hoping to get a little advice on which would be better, and if one of these items alone, as an interface between the PC and the integrated amp will provide a better listening experience. Could anyone assist?
Thanks.
