Even if you can allegedly tell the difference (I doubt it, any device playing a digital file is as good as another) there's no way it's worth at least $1,500.
Computers can play all formats but, I can hear the noise coming from my headphones when i plug them to my motherboard or to my screen.
Also good luck putting good headphones or speakers without an amplifier.
Must be a really shit board, I haven't heard any noise from a default sound card on a motherboard for more than a decade now.
Really? i was always hearing noise from motherboards. From all computers i have used (personal or not).
motherboards, even the cheap ones have pretty damn good sound these days. I would do a pepsi challenge with $150 mobo and its sound vs pretty much anything. I very much doubt an "audiophile" could tell the difference.
My motherboard costed $300, 2 years ago. Mobos will always have shit sound due to high EMI. It got better than 10 years ago but its still low quality.
