Well this is my setup.
(OB sound card) iTunes -> AKAI Stereo Receiver AA-910 -> Alessandro MS-1
I like the sound but compared to the iPod as a source it's not that good. I'm guessing it's the OB card. BTW, tested files are an Apple Lossless copy of Bob Dylan's Desire album.
I know it's not that recommended to use a stereo receiver as a head-amp but this is what I have.
I thought about a DAC/AMP combo a first, but then I cam across this on ebay:
New E-MU 0404 24bit/192KHz PCI Audio Card w/Digital I/O
It's very cheap, 80$ shipped! Do you think it's a scam?
Thanks!
