Reading the posts in the playback forum, i find myself completly lost. Right now i am basically happy with my rig and will wait for the next wave of new and improved shit to hit the market (661 or some such) before upgrading to 24bit. i want to build a system around my computer or at least have the option of inputting from the computer.
right now my playback is purely for leisure a pair of crappy computer speakers and sub to go with them, which does not allow for any critical listening.
my guess would be i need a nice sound card if i want the system based around the computer, then a dac, then a preamp, power amp and speakers.
it seems like the best way to get an immediate improvement is with new speakers, but how would i make the speakers compatible with the computer?
please feel free to make any comments and correct my lack of knowledge in the playback world.
thanks
luke
