Not if you have standalone speakers.
Audiophile equipment isn't all-in-one like typical consumer audio.

Yes, his Lepai mini amp is most likely digital.

There's a big difference between "hybrid digital" and "pure digital". The former accepts an analog signal and uses it to modulate a high frequency carrier while the latter synthesizes the carrier with a DSP. The former will see improvements with a better sound card, while the latter will not.

I've hooked my sound up in this manner...
Sound blaster z---> Lepai digital amp--> pioneer sp-Bs22lr bookshelf speakers.
I'm actually quite impressed with how much clearer the sound is. I've been playing flac files and they sound excellent. May be placebo but I seem to able to point out certain beats/cymbals that I previously hadn't heard. Also the sound blaster software absolutely smokes my on board audio.
