So I just about had it with soundcards. I recently purchased a SoundBlaster AE-9, pretty much the cream of the crop sound card next to the Nu Audio card from EVGA. But in recent months I been having major issues with the card and customer service is being dicks about it and I want to move away from integrated sound options to external

So my plea for help is, Can any audiophile or anyone who knows about DACS give me some recommendations to some high end DACS in the 400 CAD range? I wanna throw that piece of shit SoundBlaster in the trash...

I'm running a pair of studio monitor Presonus Eris E5, I really love to hear my music with punchy bass and Crystal CLEAR sound.

So Anything with the RCA, RED/WHITE option from end to end and USB connection to the PC



Thanks for any help!!! :) <3
