Hi,
I've had a little search and wasn't too successful (I think because so many posts contain "DAC").
anywho...
At the moment I use my PC for music and my files are imported as ".wav"
I have a Creative x-fi soundcard which is connected to an amp.
I may be wrong, be the sound card has a DAC chip on it. (if that makes sense)
Are there any advantages to building a USB DAC instead of the soundcard?
I've also read about software to feed the soundcard/DAC an "un-touched" sound signal. If you have any info about this I'd be interested to know.
Thanks for reading
