In the HTPC relm: How good is lossless files through the digital out into an outboard DAC, such as an ART DI/O?
I've played with hooking PCs up to stereo's, but have yet to make a perminant addition to my system because I haven't heard a soundcard as good as my simple Yamaha CDC 565 or a Toshiba 3960 (un-moded). I'd like to put one in to replace the changer, but don't want to unless I am atleast maintaining the limitied quality that I already have.
Anybody playing their tunes via an outboard DAC? Any prolems or drawbacks worth mentioning?
