The Dude Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I am currently using a usb sound card to play music from my laptop to my receiver for 2 channel listening. Would it be a upgrade to go from the usb sound card to a hdmi cable from the laptop to the receiver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tromprof Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Depends on the quality of the sound card and the receiver. In most cases the answer would be yes since you are using the receivers better DAC. You will also notice an improvement if you can bypass Wndows interference. A good program like JRiver makes that easy. Edited March 23, 2014 by tromprof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
