Hi all,
I'm looking to upgrade my desktop speakers, I'm currently using the Edifier 1600T's. My budget is £250 tops (may be able to stretch a tiny bit), I like the look of the LSR305's but they are too big for my desk as I don't have too much room.
My current set up: Using a Audioengine D1 which is going to be connected into my Xonar DG sound card.
This leads me to my last two questions. If I connect the D1 into the Xonar DG sound card via optical cable will the sound card benefit my audio in any way? Or will the D1 just over ride it and not have any affect.
Also, (this may be a stupid question) should I have my PC sound & speakers set to 100% and then control the volume via my D1 volume knob, or have my D1 set to max volume and control the volume via my PC? I doubt there's much difference but just to clarify.
