Hello all,i am fairly new to this high end audiophile thing,i started out with some polk's R15's and a old yamaha receiver and upgraded to a denon 1609 receiver and a pair of Klipsch Rf52's and a mirage audio sub. Been using that mainly for HT use,but i finally wanna get my feet wet in the audiophile game.I practically know what speakers i want so far (Focal 806 v's) and probably a Cambridge audio Azur 340A amp.Here's where i'm torn, i wanted to get a CD player,but after alot of research,i've got alot of FLAC files,and was wondering if to get a DAC with usb,first of,i have a very limited idea as to how the usb one's work? Does the PC see it as a external soundcard or something? Also,which is a good one to get within my budget which is around $400USD max. I live in Trinidad,and would probably be overcharged to ship it here anyways,so thats what i have to work with,as far as i know there are one or two high end audio stores locally,and their not even stores,they never have stock on anything and seriously overcharge on items (i called them some time back when i was looking for a new receiver) so everything will be basically shipped in from the US.Sorry for the long post.regards.
