Hello all,
I have put a fair amout of money aside, to invest in a decent desktop setup for use with my pc.
I am pretty much sorted in my mind that I will be investing with WooAudio. My initial plan was to get a WooAudio 6 or WA 6SE with recabled Moon-Audio HD650s. However my mind has wandered onto bigger things.
I have been looking at the WA-GES + STAX SR-007MK2, this is quite a conciderable amount more to spend obviously, than my previous thoughts. If I went with this set up it will save money in an upgrade process in the future. I have not had any experience with Electrostatic. Am I correct in thinking that if i went with the WA-GES + STAX SR-007MK2 I will only be able to use Electrostatic headphones?
Maybe I am getting a bit carried away here and that I should be realistic and just go for the Wa6 or Wa6 SE + HD650s. This is purley for entertainment, films and music from my PC rig.
What I am still a little unsure on, no matter which option I ended up deciding on, would I need to get myself a dedicated Dac to bridge my sound card to the Amp. I realise that my soundcard would have a dac on it, however will I be sacrificing any SQ from just my sound card, or even do any damage to my soundcard by hooking something of this caliber to the card? Its a Soundblaster PCI XFI Titanium card.

If I ever decided to hook up a speaker system to my pc, what else would I need to consider? I would like to hook up some decent non computer speakers at some point in time.
Cheers.
