Hi Kevin.
I had a look at this device as I'm thinking of an alternative to my Creative
Soundblaster 24 bit external card.
At the moment, I have my Soundblaster sending the audio file via it's optic
out, into a Yamaha AV unit. The quality of the sound is really very good.
The V-DAC has an analogue output, which would simply go into my CD phono
inputs on the Yamaha.
Kevin, I thought that the quality of Optic was much better than Phono? Are
you saying that the V-DAC, plugged into my computer's USB and to my CD
Phono's on the AV unit are as good or better than the Soundblaster with it's
optic output to the AV unit?
Very best wishes.
Andy.

Yes, if you're looking for pure high quality playback then I'd recommend the
Musical Fidelity V-DAC. This is a real piece of hi-fi kit produced by a
well respected hi-fi brand rather than a piece of computer kit. It will
connect via USB and can be bought for approx. £150 from www.superfi.co.uk
Regards.

Speaking of high sound quality - I would be in the market for a very good
digital to analog converter simply to use my computer connected to a good
stereo system.
Is there anything better than the xitel for example?

Hi John,
Thanks for the advice. I must admit that I discarded the Sound blaster cards
in advance. I suppose the digital connections will be ok, since a bit is a
bit. However, their d/a-converters don't have a very good reputation with
me. Maybe they have improved, or maybe I am just prejudiced, but I was
originally going for a more high-end solution. Do Sound blaster actually
make high-end cards, or is is it just gaming and surround stuff, like I
thought it was? Are there any good alternatives?
Best regards
Bue

Hi.
Can anyone help me?
I need a high-end hi-fi soundcard with an accessible configuration
interface and that is compatible with Windows 7. It is going to sit in
my hi-fi pc, so I don't really need surround sound or 64 channels..
All i really need is stereo analogue and digital inputs and outputs
and a card that will do the job and do it really well.
Best regards
Bue
