Hello everyone! ![Smile :) :)](/styles/default/xenforo/vbSmilies/Normal/smile.gif)
I want to buy new speakers that I could connect to both pc and ps4 slim and I can't seem to make up my mind about the setup. I was thinking of buying Sound BlasterX G6, so I could connect speakers and my headphones Sennheiser HD 58X (I don't like plugging them into the controller). I know I'd probably need hdmi extractor, so I could use dolby feature.
As for speakers, I would be using them for music, movies and games, so I was looking into Edifier S350DB which has some great reviews. Do you guys know whether I should invest into a sound card or the on board analog connection is good enough? I have Asus Prime b350-Plus mobo with realtek ALC887 audio. I'm currently using on board with HD 58X for listening to flac and mp3 and I don't know, sound is good, clean and they get loud enough, I keep the volume around 25% or less.
Also, is S350DB good all-round choice or should I rather go with 2.0 setup like maybe Edifier R2000DB and similar active speakers?
I like full, rich sound, I don't really know how to explain it, I'm not into all of that audiophile stuff, but I can appreciate a good sound.
The budget for speakers is around 250 eur (220 gbp). The S350DB cost 26 gbp more, but I don't mind.
I also don't have a chance to test the speakers, I use YouTube videos for that and once I buy them I'll keep them for years.
