Hello I'm hoping you guys can help me make sense of what I should do because I'm kinda lost.
It all started when I was going to buy a pair of t50rps and an xlr microphone for my pc.
The plan was to buy a usb interface capable of driving the headphones and providing good mic gain however it seems that most are unable to provide that kind of current, at least the ones available in my mere mortal budget ($300).
My new plan is to get a cheap interface just for the mic like a M-Audio M-Track Solo. For the headphones I currently have a fiio e10k so I'm thinking I could use that as the DAC and then get an Atom as the amp.
So it would be:
PC > M-Track > Mic
PC > e10k > Atom > headphones
Would that work, is there a better way of doing this within my budget?
Thanks for your help.
