OK straight off the bat, audio is the area of PCs I know the least about so bear with me!
I have a pretty decent PC setup but have never really bothered with the audio side of things but I thought given I had spent a small fortune on the rest of my gear its time to think about the audio. I bought a pair of PreSonus Eris E4.5 speakers as I am just looking for good stereo sound, not really "gaming" speakers or 5.1 or any of that jazz as its not suited to my room setup.
So now I want to know what I should be looking at adding to get the most out of them. I just have them plugged into my motherboard, which is a MSI B450 tomahawk and whilst its a solid board in lots of ways I dont think the audio is great on it (it does not have any digital outputs). With that in mind I am considering a dedicated soundcard and/or DAC but like I say I don't really have a great idea of where I should be going from here.
I do need to get some stands for them as they clearly sound better when at the right height and the isolation will obviously help but other than that I am a bit clueless here Any pointers on what I should be considering would be gratefully received!
Any further info needed to give me some help just give me a shout.
Cheers
