Hey folks,
Bit of a novice when it comes to this stuff, and am hoping to get some recommendations in connecting my hardware to my PC.
I've got the following, in order of importance/frequency of use.
Ideally I wouldn't need an additional headphone amp but I'm not sure if it's possible to go that way without suffering a substantial loss in quality.
Based on recommendations/research I've done, the Motu M2/M4 seems like a decent option, however I do have 2-3x more room in my budget, if worth the cash.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I've got the following, in order of importance/frequency of use.
- Headphones (HD650, AKG7XX etc...) formerly driven with a now broken Mayflower Audio O2/ODAC combo connected to my PC via USB. In the meantime I am plugging my headphones into my mixer below.
- A Dynamic Microphone to capture voice for voice recording, Audio Conferencing and general VoIP, plugged in by XLR cable to a behringer XENYX 802, connected to my PC's integrated audio through 3.5mm to RCA.
- Active powered speakers connected to my PC's integrated audio through 3.5mm to RCA.
- A USB/MIDI Keyboard Controller, connected to my PC via USB.
