consoles -> HDTV ->?? -> headphones
Looking for something to fill in the blank. I'm not very experienced when it comes to audio so I'm not even sure I'm asking in the right place. My needs are mostly for gaming, my current headphones are a pair of audio technica ath ad700's and a sennheiser hd 280 pro.
Since I occasionally watch TV i'd prefer something that can come from my TV instead of from the consoles directly. A product that I often come across while researching my needs is an astro mixamp? Would a product such as this benefit me with my current hardware? Do I lose the benefits of digital surround If i'm routing it all the way through my TV?
I'm aware my headphones aren't super high end, which is why I'm looking for something preferably around or under $100.
My TV supports rca out and digital optical out.
Thanks in advance.
