![]() Your better off going analog with either card. Connecting either to a high end amp by digital kills the sound quality of the card. It's analog prowess is what makes it stand out other then that I can buy a cheap 8788 based card and have the same digital features. Your saying the Benefit of the Prelude is only seen in analog form. I change my soundcard frequently and usually mod them extensively. I just said I prefer the Prelude 7.1 for my use right now. I like the Xonars as I have said more then once. I like them but have used them for so long now I wanted something different. I personally don't use the LM4562's anymore. If they are cheap, then your soundcard is limited by them. The Opamps are the last stage in the sound card and quite important when using analog. Audio on the sound card is only in analog form on the inputs of ADC and on the outputs of the DAC, other then that it is always in the digital form. If you want to go digital from the card for optical etc then the audio doesn't change at all. DAC-Digital to analog converters is the device that converts the audio from the digital form to analog form for output. ADC-Analog to digital converters are used when recording sound. The audio is already in digital form on the card. Your a bit mixed up in your descriptions of DAC's and ADC's.ĪDC-Do not convert the signal back to digital for transmission across optical or coaxial lines.
