Just bought a pair of Mackie mr524 studio monitors. Connected them through RCA input to my PC's 3.5mm jack output. My Asus hero 8 mainboard's onboard soundcard has ESS ES9023p DAC chip.
Is it going to perform better with budget external usb soundcard if I connect through XLR input? Thinking of Focusrite Scarlett Solo mk2, Mackie onyx artist 1.2 or m-audio m-track II or something else![Headphone Smile :) :)](https://cdn.head-fi.org/e/headfi/smily_headphones1.gif)
I need suggestions![Headphone Smile :) :)](https://cdn.head-fi.org/e/headfi/smily_headphones1.gif)
