Hi, I've recently bought a part of a hi-fi system - An amplifier and a pair of monitor speakers (NAD C320BEE and Monitor Audio Bronze 2). I am planning to buy a CDP soon too (NAD C521BEE), but I want to be sure *before* the purchase, that the problem I'm having now is caused by the fact that I'm using a cheap on-board computer soundcard, instead of a decent CDP.
This is, as I said, some sort of a hissing sound - it becomes stronger when I turn up the volume when no music is played, but it can also be heard on some of the songs I'm playing (good quality ones too [192k and more] )
So, can I buy the CDP and expect the hissing sound to disappear (as well as the sound quality to improve?
)
