Hi folks,

I am looking to set up a digital link over co-ax from my PC to my Rotel amp, so I can play my music off my PC through my system. Are there any cheap, yet decent quality PCI or USB cards which have a digital output, which would be suitable for this application?

I will mainly be playing from Windows Media Player in WMA lossless or WAV formats. Any issues arrise using these?

I used to use an EMU 1212m which had great connections, but was a swine to configure. I looked to get another one, but they have doubled in price since I got the other, so are not as affordable now!

Also looked into getting the Lexicon Omega, but this looks like there may be some issues with power supply noise, and cheap electronics inside?

Any other suggestions?

Regards
G!
