I'm currently on the market for cheap soundcard with optical out that will be mainly used as a pass through for my DAC? Correct me if I'm wrong, but there is no difference in sound quality between a high end sound card and low/cheap one if I will be using the optical out of the sound card to the optical in of my DAC right?
About the soundcards, I really don't know if these cards support optical out on their digital out port. I've already searched the net and there seems to be not much of a discussion about these cards using optical out so I'm hesitant to buy them.

Will I still achieve bit perfect data from these cards? If these cards doesn't support optical out, could you recommend a cheap pci sound card that has optical out, probably a Creative since they are more locally available here in the Philippines.
Thanks guys.
