It`s been some time that I usually use Pc audio for music listening,
first, its so practical, you rip your cd in lossless, put them in the large Music folder,
and then Foobar will do the rest,
also the SQ is good, even with onboard audio, is quiet acceptable,
but I use some good audiophile soundcards and also some budget DACs,
and of course I have a cd player, which can be categorized as vintage, since is about 15 years old, its a Sony, entry level, it should be the ES line, but really the cheapest of the line,
so, I use it some times when I`m lazy to turn on pc,
the point is that I still prefer the sound of my cd player with a very old unknown DAC inside,
(and I wonder how better should modern audiophile cd players be..)
or maybe because this way is better to listen and concentrate to music, just put the cd inside, sit down and listen, without playing with the mouse or internet browser..
Is pc audio audiophile, or its just an easy way to listen to music, without messing with hundreds of cds?
