Using computer as source, what software/hardware do I need to get this all to work?
Current setup is Foobar in ASIO outputting via USB to DACMagic. I know the DACMagic only supports up to 48khz on USB, but can do up to 96khz through spdif.
Currently I have no sound card (other than onboard) and on the horizon may be a JH3A capable of taking 24/192 files. I'd like to prepare for using that level of resolution.
Will I be able to continue using Foobar or do I need a special player/plugin? Which soundcard do you suggest for 24/192 output (PCI Express if possible)? I see some of the popular sound cards with high rez options don't play all resolutions. Is this a big deal or should I not worry too much about odd resolutions?
Thanks,
Chris
