Hello everyone!
I'm waiting for a pair of powered speakers (Adam a7x) to arrive and wanted to ask for some advice. I'll be using the monitors to listen to the music from laptop/computer, no music production, no recording etc. I currently have Magni 3 and Audio Technica r70x headphones. I could just plug the monitors directly to Magni with RCA cables (Magni acting as a preamp). Would that be a bad option? Or should I get Audio Interface or DAC, just wondering if the difference would be very noticeable?
If getting Audio Interface / DAC is recommended, what would you recommend circa $100? And should I connect it to Magni or keep both separate?
I'm not too experienced with the subject so appreciate all the advice, thanks so much in advance.
