Hi guys,
I just recently ordered a sennheiser hd595, and as a huge music lover, i simply can not wait for it to get here!! However, i was wondering if anyone could give me some ideas for a sweet audio system?
*goal* to set up a nice system with computer as the source (with digital music being more prevalent these days and with the quality of the lossless music files and the ease in organization) it just seems like the better way to go.
I will be using my headphone while on my desktop (where i spend a lot of time at) However, i also have a laptop that i would love to use to play music in the living room when i have guests over for dinner parties and what not.
I know that i probably would need a great soundcard for my desktop (that would probably be the first priority i'm guessing.... any suggestions?
also, i hear people talking about DAC, and amplifiers (what does the DAC do exactly? what's better? tube dac? how does this actually make the digital sound sound better?
Amp, i hear a lot of amps for headphones.... but can i also use them if i decide to not use the headphone, but to play music through the speakers? for example, when i'm entertaining guests?
lastly, are there any good computer speakers that rivals the regular speakers? like bmw, jbl?
oh, and let me know if i missed anything!!
