18861 2001-09-15 01:38:00 Hello I'm looking for a sound card that will only be used for connecting my computer to my stereo to play mp3s.
Could someone please recomend the best Soundcard for this?
Thanks.

Aparantly the SB Live Value is very good, but still quite expensive.

Arstechnica have a system guide thats fairly recent:
arstechnica.com

The 'budget box' will be the best to look at.

SBLive!Value is about the cheapest card that will give you sound that only an audiophile could find faults with. Guest (0)

Price is not too much of an issue I just dont need a card that supports 5.1 or 4 speakers or anything.
Just the best card to connect to my stereo with. My stereo is quite good so I'm looking for a quality card.
Thanks!
