Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
Worthwhile reading before you decide to go hi volume digital. I have about a Tb in music and use the Realtek and I think it sounds great.
XPL 200's w DX1, XPL 160's, XPL 140's, L7's, L5's, L3's, L1's Homemade L Center, 4412's, 4406, L60T's, L20T's
Yep, agreed. No need to spend more than $2 for a DAC these days, that Realtek is the real deal!
My PC's power supply croaked today , so I whipped out the big VAIO laptop , not really a hardship since
it has a 19" screen and faster CPU and bigger HD
It's been off so long that a bunch of updates were needed. Noticed that one was a Realtek driver.
It has a 6 speaker audio system (with a sub) and SRS , always thought it sounded great

The remote controller shows the album cover assuming there is a pic of it in the album folder. Software still available and there is an active forum community.

The power supply on my 2003 Dell tower finally died , so
I grabbed the big (19 inch 3 gun) screen Sony laptop. It has the
same size HD & RAM , but faster proc.
Taking my time replacing the PS as the Sony is somewhat of an upgrade.
Anyway, despite having the much appreciated Realtek DAC , my ESS/Sonance combo
sounded better on the Dells Audigy 2XZ card.
Went back and fished the external 24/192 DAC from the living room (I posted about it
in an old thread that I can't find) BMW Phil bought one too. A very versatile, multi-ip-op special.
Holy Crap , it sure made a huge difference iTunes/Pandora sound stellar.
Maybe Phil remembers the brand...it is Ch1nese and under $50 delivered from the PRC.
Unsure what I can do to make it sound better ? Very happy with this temp solution.
Oh here >>> I found the link .... nice. price went down & now shipped from USA .
