Hey [H], I need some audio help. I’ve currently got a SoundBlaster Z that I am using with a set of Logitech Z5500’s and some AD900 headphones. The sound card is starting to give me issues, I’ll have to restart the pc to get it to work or uninstall and reinstall it on occasion. I’d like to move in another direction and am thinking about going the dac and amp route if I can? I don’t really see any options for 5.1 DAC’s though? Should I just get the SoundBlasterX AE-5?
I’d really like to keep my Z5500’s in use but be able to use the headphones when I need it to be quieter. I’m pretty clueless when it comes to PC audio (or audio in general) so I’ll take whatever help I can get, I appreciate the support.
I’d like to spend $300 or less if possible to get a working setup.
