Guys, first off I am limited in knowledge and new to head-fi. I have dove in head first though and I bought my first item (a Audeze isine 20) in January. So that is how “fresh” I am. So forgive the question if it seems stupid. From lots of trading and trying stuff out, I decided that a home headphone set up is for me. I now own a nice tube amp (ampsandsound SE-84 that is heavily modified as it was the personal amp of the owner of the company), a nice DAC with solid state balanced amp (Yulong DA9) and a Audeze LCD-3. I bought a refurbished laptop to be my music laptop and nothing else. I noticed my Yulong was showing a sample rate of 44.1 on every type of file I played. I have a few 196 and some dsd files as well. I found I had to change my J-River settings and realized that my laptop sound card will only play up to 96khz. Is there a option for something external that I will be able to play 192 and dsd from my current Laptop (only usb connections) and still use my DAC? Or..... any input is appreciated.
