My current headset is dying so I'm planning to use my sennheiser hd558 for pretty much everything that requires a headset.
To get the best out of this I'm planning to get a sound card. I'll be mainly using this for gaming, some music and rarely for movies (75% gaming, 20% music, 5% movies)
Currently I'm choosing between the Xonar DGX or the Sound Blaster Z.
Leaning to the sound blaster because I can plug in both my speakers and headphones which is hugely important for me as I can't plug in my headphones in the front of my pc!
For speakers I've been recommended Logitech z313, Logitech z523, Genius SW-G2.1 1250 or an AMP with bookshelf speakers.
For this im leaning to the amp + speakers but I have no clue what amp and I can't find any desktop sized speakers for this as I don't have much space for the speakers.
Summarized:
- Sound Card:
Max $75
Xonar DGX vs Sound Blaster Z or other soundcards?
Mainly used for gaming.
Most important is the ability to plugin both speakers and headphones.
- Speakers:
~ $100
Logitech z313 vs z523 vs Genius SW-G2.1 1250 vs AMP+speakers
Other recommendations?
