I have a Realtek sound card, the kind that comes with every laptop...., the sound that comes out of is not that good, as expected.
I'm not familiar with the whole digital path inside sound cards and optical interfaces in general, how clean is the signal coming out from the mini 3.5mm Optical ?,
I understand it's a digital signal, but does it get processed by the sound card first, or is it straight digital information from the music software?(in my case foobar/wasapi).
And if it does get processed by the sound card, does it really affect anything, it's just 1 and 0's right?
