If you were truely a newbie, you would not even be asking or thinking about things like this. sounds as if you have been at least reading the high-end stuff for a while.
someone help me please i am a newb
I am new to high(er)-end stereo, i was recently given a stereo system that I would like to start adding to. I have a Mcintosh C33 preamp into B&K ST140 stereo amp and dual 1218 turntable and i want to either 1)get a DAC to play my digital music catalogue stored on my dell inspiron 530 or
2)screw it and upgrade to a better turntable
I have a budget of ~$500-$750
that said, i would like to understand computer to DAC playback/setup...like, should i be concerned about the quality of my computer/usb output?...or does the DAC pretty much negate that?...and maybe some of you could suggest other things i need to think about, thanks
