I've got an Asus P5Q Pro (using onboard Realtek ALC1200) with some Logitech speakers right now and I'm looking to upgrade. I mostly want it for music and some gaming, but also for the occasional movie. After reading many, many threads here, here's what I came up with:
Xonar DX for $76.53
M-Audio AV40s for $109.79
Bic V-1020 for $122.65
+$47.85 for shipping
= $356.82
So, could I do better for the money? If so, what do you suggest?
Also, I should let you know that I have a receiver that I could use. It's a Kenwood Sovereign VR-5080. If it's really worth-while, I'll use the receiver, but I'd rather not take up the room at my desk if I don't need to.
Thanks in advance.
