So I already own the udac, and the other day I just got a new desktop with the Soundblaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio card in it. I figured I would try out the audio card, just for grins. Well, to me, it sounds better than my udac. MY headphones are a pair of shure 840's with about 500 hours on them, all via the udac. I am not sure how that is, but I notice even more details with the x-fi, and the soundstage is wider. Is it due to 16 bit vs 24 bit? Does the x-fi have a better amp section in it? The thought of trading my udac for a ld 1+ has been crossing my mind a lot. Thoughts?
