    introduction and basic HD digital audio to DAC advise apreciated

    Hi nlovie, - By using usb, your dac is your (external) soundcard. The realtek is not used, and quality is not an issue. - The newest versions of Jriver media jukebox do not support asio! You can start using Jriver media center (which you have to pay for), or use an older version of jukebox...
