ERROR double post

I have speakers - B&Ws 602s.

Alright guys. My receiver is a Denon AVR-485 which came with as a 5.1 setup for my pc. The receiver isn't one of the better Denons so relying on my receiver, I believe, won't be sufficient. All of my audio files are WAVs. Anyway, on audioreview they were persistent on external soundcards...

THe title sums it up. I hear external soundcards are best for minimizing interference. Can I pair an external and internal soundcard (the x-fi for games and the external for music)? What are DACs and how are external DACs better? What are some external DAC options? Should I spend my money on an...

I assume there is a "better" alternative to the xtrememusic. What would that be? And would I be able to use it along with another soundcard. I hear that for music listening and for audio purposes, an external sound card is best. I also hear that the best external soundcard is the m-audio...

I was also wondering if there's a way of having a two soundcard setup: the xtrememusic for gaming and an m-audio audiophile external soundcard for my music listening needs.

Okay I'm going to be buying two B&Ws (dm602) for stereo listening. I have a sub if the necessary bass can't be produced by the B&Ws. I was wondering if my X-Fi xtrememusic would be up to the task. If not what other sound card would be recommended? Also I'm planning on getting a DAC. What is a...

Thanks tower. I actually did read the headfi review and the review of the beyer from the headphonereviews.org website. Reviews were positive. However I'm a bit perplexed. Is the 2006 version any diff from the 2005? I'm finding the beyer's at amazon for roughly $250-260 w/ shipping: here Also...

I dunno. Rock isn't the ONLY type of music I listen to. I have an eclectic music taste ranging from Sinatra to Eric Clapton to much more recently Fort Minor. I should have clarified that. So the Dt880s are decent allrounders right? I mean they're not HORRIBLE for rock music is what I was asking...

Also what if any amp would u suggest for these cans?

I was reading reviews on the Beyerdynamic DT 880s and sadly many of the reviews indicated that the 880s are unable to show agression in music which is primarily what i wish to use these cans for. What other alternatives do you suggest besides them? - or should I just go w/ the 880s and ignore...

so the neohe works eh? Have you tried running prime95 or loading the cpu. I hear those psus choke if given too much load...

Personally I'm planning on replacing the fans with nexus 120mm @9v and only using the water cooling to cool the processor because my video card is cooled by my vf900 which keeps it below 50 and I've o/ced that card to, what I believe, is maximum and the nb on my a8r32 is pretty cool.

You guys lucked out. My opty 165 requires a lot of volts to reach 2.7 (1.5v) and as a result temps skyrocket when i have it at that setting. I decided to stay with 2.6 because that was sufficient for me. My stepping CCBWE 0551 VPMW.
