    Onboard versus Audigy2

    The Realtek HD 888/889 chipset is incredibly good, and can compete with the best of cards. TBH the reproduction of most cards is nearly the same, you just pay for extra features like EAX and Dolby. The main downfall of internal sound is Electromagnetic interference or EMI. EMI sounds like...

    Audio-Technica ATH-AD700 Headphone Review @ [H]

    No, thats is not true and that now how electricity works. 32ohm impedance is 32ohm impedance. It doesn't matter how much current the device is receiving. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_impedance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction You can surly push more...

    JAVA, C, C++ or C#?

    You're right, I didn't mean to make it sound like the key to success, but it can certainly help.

    JAVA, C, C++ or C#?

    At many schools, like the University I graduated from. CS is an Engineering degree. It would be equally as good.

    JAVA, C, C++ or C#?

    No it doesn't guarantee a thing, but an engineering degree proves competence in complex problem solving. Something most other degree's dont. You would be surprised how few engineers are actually unemployed, as employment is rather easy. An engineering degree will also allow one to advance...

    JAVA, C, C++ or C#?

    Want a tip? Get an engineering degree. It will take you a lot further in life. Now there will be a number of people below me who call me crazy. They are nuts. Look into it. Its well worth the work put in.

    getting my A+ cert

    My A+ even adds onto my engineering degree. You would be surprised how many of those people who are so sure of themselves fail it. I think its great. Plus if you wanted to start your own company, its reassuring to clients.

    Audio-Technica ATH-AD700 Headphone Review @ [H]

    Soundcard matters very little in sonic output. You are unlikely to see much difference between lets say a Xonar DS vs STX considering 2.1 usage. I have no idea about all of this dolby and EAX garbage. Dac A and Dac B, may give a different flavor of sound, but that says nothing about the units...

    Audio-Technica ATH-AD700 Headphone Review @ [H]

    Not really sure why you needed a Xonar ST, its amp likely did nothing for a 32ogm impedance headphone.

    cMoy amp or Amped Sound card

    Every soundcard has an amp on it. It just depends on how powerful of an amp you want. 150-200 Ohms really tends to be the cutoff on what most standard soundcard's can handle without a more power amp or external amp. If you are insistent on an amp (it likely will have a small...

    Should I go for a USB Sound card?

    what sound chipset does your laptop have?

    Should I go for a USB Sound card?

    No I don't own one, but like every other $100 usb dac under the sun, they are all nearly the same. What I meant by 98 cent dac, is the actual dac chip inside of the unit is about $1. I am also well aware of the units hype, but on head-fi for every praise there i also a disappointment. You...
