OK folks...
English isn't my primary language, so bare with me here....
Before I'm going to ask a question, here is my setup...
Source - I am currently using EMU 1212m with foobar (EAC ripped wav files.)
Amp - Headroom Home
Phones - Senn. HD 580, Ety-4p/s, and (RS-1 should arrive sometimes next week.)
Music preferences.
I don't really know exactly what kind of music I like (lack of words), but these are artists that I like
Suzanne Vega, Natalie Merchant, 10,000 Maniacs, The Cranberries, Diana Krall, Fleetwood Mac, Guns N' Roses, Nirvana, Pearl Jam... etc...
I was quite happy with this setup till.... till I start thinking about how it could be better...
I really like the convenient of not having to get up and change cd every time I want to listen to a different album.
Now let me begin... as of late I have a thought that how could a soundcard with small analog section outpeform a dedicated cd player? (no flame here, just a thought.)
So I've been looking at NAD c541i and c542. Will this be an improvement over 1212m? If so, would the different be subtle?
I would like to get some opinions from you guys especially those who have both 1212m and NAD players.
Thank you.
