I just upgraded some ancient computer speakers (Logitech 5.1 speaker system) for the KH80/KH750 package. Wow, its great! I still need to get some stands for them to elevate off the desktop.
I have a kind of unusual setup, as I have a Macbook, a PC, and a RoPiee. So I use the Inday DA4X-R to switch between toslink inputs. I used to go toslink to the old computer speakers, now I use spdif (rca to bnc), which works fine.
My only complaint is the Neuman software requires that the audio output and mic input be via the same sound device! I can't do that! The kit came with the Neumann MA.1 mic. I normally use the Shure X2u (XLR-USB) adapter for my Sennheiser.
Do I really need to get an AD/DA box? Hmm, maybe I could take the unbal out from the Shure to the Neumann via a 3.5mm to xlr cable. That would be a lot cheaper than an RME Babyface or Scarlett 2i2, or whatever I'd need.
I did take some before and after REW measurements with the UMIC. I did a little playing around with hand EQ from REW to the iPad app EQ, but my life is too short to keep doing that.
