Dear Friends


I would like to connect my Laptop to a integrated amp,will use loss less files 16/44 24/96 etc.

How can I ensure there is no loss in quality.

More info about Lenovo Z580

HDMI Port
VGA Port

I was planning to use my Creative Soundblaster USB with NAD356BEE now thinking about Cambridge Audio 651a in buitDAC

I got a new pair of Polk TSI 500 Cherry


Please suggest

Thanks in advance!!

    Your Soundblaster USB DAC will be a fine option to feed the NAD356BEE. You will need to upgrade to a USB to SPDIF converter if you want to feed the Cambridge Audio a digital signal.

    Thanks Zingo!!


    But some people have told me I will loss some...with this DAC to amp process...:rolleyes:

    I am rebuilding my system into a computer-based system. Can I run that directly to an NAD amplifier?
