So I finally gave in to temptation and bought a new receiver (ONKYO TX-SR606). A few congratulatory slaps on the back are in order – it’s OK, I’ll wait…
Done? OK – lets move on –
I have not been paying much attention to HD audio options (as I have not been part of the club yet). So, now I need to ramp up.
Currently I run digital coax from my HTPC to receiver and DVI -> HDMI to TV.
I use Arcsoft TMT for BR/HD-DVD playback.
Mobo is Gigabyte 965P-DS3 with Realtek ALC888
Graphics is HIS Radeon 2600XT
How can I get the best sound out of my current setup? Can I get better sound by upgrading graphics card or mobo?
My setup is so close to perfect now, I want to make sure I go the last mile and make it perfect.
