Hi all,
a general question about sound and more precicely digital out. At the moment i am using an onboard sound card and SPDIF out. When using SPDIF does the sound card in question actually have any bearing on the sound quality ? ie. if i am outputing to a 7.1 receiver over optical, does the sound card also need to be 7.1 or not ?
I hope that my question makes sense to someone, basically i want to know if putting an X-Fi card in the system will actually make any difference when using digital out.
All the best,
Mark
