Hello, i just built my computer and decided to use my old NAD c372 hooked up to the motherboard soundcard (z77 Extreme 4) using B&W 601 speakers or Grado 225/Sen HD280/TB P11 headphones (depending on the situation).
I was wondering how i can improve the sound from this setup?
I know i could sit my B&W 602s here and have better sound because it was my old stereo setup but i use them in my 5.1 TV setup now and they would be too big for the computer....
what would be a good purchase right now for this setup?
I have a PCI Emu 0404 soundcard at home that i got at a carboot sale a while ago but i cant find the cables for it atm, is it worth looking for them or just buying a new soundcard?
Is having the NAD c372 + 601s hooked up to the computer a bad idea? I could sell them and get something cheaper/better to replace it.
Anyway i just dont know which direction to go with this...would prefer to keep the upgrade under £100
btw i use this computer mostly for gaming but also listen to alot of music (flac)
