Hi everyone!
I have my both hands on a deal and i would like to have your opinion.
These two bad boys together are worth it? I can have the xonar card for 50eur and the amplifier for 150eur. With these two will i be able to have dts live for everything right? my games and movies will be heard on a TRUE 5.1 setup right?
Thanks in advance

Should. It says it has 4 digital inputs. You'd want to use the digital out on the soundcard as that receiver will do a better D/A conversion than the soundcard. 50 Eur is a good deal for that soundcard no matter what so definitely get it.
 
thanks a lot Theocnoob... :D unfortunatly the xonar card is gone so i have to buy another one... :( but im still thinking about the same card (110eur in pixmania.com)
