I will try to keep this simple. I have tried figuring this out on my own by browsing other threads but I can't seem to do it. There isn't some over all guide for moving on from Multimedia speakers
. So thats why I am asking. It gets pretty confusing.
My current set-up (x-fi extreme music + klipsch promedia 2.1) no longer satisfies my ears. I do watch some movies, and then play games at my PC. As a side question; What is the realistic detriment to movie/gaming audio performance? I am pretty sure it is nothing I will miss. Shaking the room bass is not something I ever really used with my current speakers anyways.
I have a budget of $700. What do I do? I have concluded that I will need a new soundcard and then Audio Engine 5 bookshelf speakers, to really get the bang for my buck. But what are my other options, and options for sound cards?
