the biggest thing you get from external dac is ability to drive more serious pair of cans - i have high end integrated audio on mobo, but it obviously struggles with 30 ohm headphones

i am afraid to talk about things other than impedance, im just happy i don’t have noticeable static noise

but that’s integrated, i don’t use it for anything since pc is too far away from desk on the wrong side from all cables. so speakers go into monitor audio port (don’t @ me), and headphones into focusrite solo

i use poo poo headphones on my poo poo integrated sound card - does the needful for me

with that said, I don't think cinci was worried about impedance-matching, but more about "can the output stage from my sound-card drive these without hitting the supply rails"

yeah im far from audio nerd or anything, there’s just very obvious “sound fullness” difference when i compare the back panel audio port to a an external dac. supposedly, as i read now, my motherboard has dedicated amplifier for front panel audio, that i haven’t tried at all, i think. apparently the one i tried is a “differential amplifier”, whatever is that

in other words, my measure of audio quality is if my headphones work well. with back panel audio a 250 dollar pair of headphones was worse than a 15 dollar pair.

i remember hearing mega hissing occurring while scrolling a browser or clicking windows when i was using a 2006 grade PC during the latter years of childehood

internal output things seem much better now, maybe??? :shrug:

and then having an external dac is a fun idea that i've never yet bought but they seem even more legit??? :shrug: :shrug:

nice noise over headphones is nice imhotep

there's absolutely still poo poo tier intergrated sound that'll squeak at you for scrolling in browser and similar, it shows up fairly often in lovely OEM boxes. can be fixed with a $3 usb "soundcard" tho.

the only reason to get a dedicated card these days is if you need a pro one to do latency-free sound mixing in windows because windows sound is a piece of poo poo. for everything else a cheap external DAC does just as well/better.

apropos of nothing, the fact that modern cheap headphones are multifunction USB devices implementing the Audio and HID keyboard classes is super weird

it's funny because while linus was incredibly rude in his rants, has he ever been a not-sjw? his entire project is basically software communism, that alone should be a pretty decent tell. it took him too long to figure out his conduct is problematic, but that too is more than i could say about most people in tech these days. :smith:

From my point of view, if the code of conduct remains it means that the Linux kernel has been compromised and could start spying on me in the future. Thats a big red flag for security!
