I recently upgraded my sound card to an HDA Claro plus, thinking my speaker issue was a sound card/software problem, where in reality it is most likely in the speakers themselves (probably the sub amp). Besides, that new sound card is wasted on a $59 speaker system.
Primarily I will use the speakers for gaming...and music; I have some of the ADH 700 headphones for when I am feeling audiophileish.
I'm looking at getting an Onkyo HTIB but think it might be overkill, this is a small 11 x 11 office so I don't need all those watts, it's in a condo so the walls are paper thin. . Still it would be useful, I may use the old 5.1 setup in my home theatre and just put the new one there, but I am looking to get some opinions on the matter.
I've considered using surround headphones but I haven't been convinced the technology is quite there yet...
