Hello Head-Fi,
for something like a year I am working on my PC-jukebox. I even programmed my own jukebox-software which controls foobar of my palm and pocket-pc.
Only problem I was worrying, was the soundcard.... I tried Ap2496, tried 040, ESI Waveterminal... everything was fine, it worked. But somehow, something was missing all the time compared to a CD-player.
Because of that, I bought the Benchmark DAC1... some people here told, that it raises sound to another level and it´s true: my 040 and Benchmark DAC1 sound amazing, detailed, nice, nearly analog, precise and perfect stereo imaging. I love it!
Thank you all very much for recommending it (iron-dreamer, etc.)
cheers
Andreas
