What You've Just Bought!

I don't use paypal enough to know that....Thanks for the tip
Seems to me... that it'll cost more than the 20¢ just to run it through a CC

If what I'm figuring from Kman, you're paying for the trial cards at that cost. Those come with a code you need to put in, and instead of remembering to cancel at the end of the 2 months it just hits Paypal with a canceled sub on their end and no harm done. I figured this out with EA Pro because I canceled their sub 3 or 4 different times and it never canceled. So I did it through Paypal and Paypal just says nah and EA says payment method declined.

Yeah exactly. They're trial cards I found on allkeyshop.com. Weird thing is it says only new accounts could claim them. But for 17 cents or whatever it was I thought i'd give it ago. It worked on my account that i've been subscribing to game pass for two years on and just cancelled it last week.

Forgot to put I also got a Sound Blaster X4 as well. This Zx has been kicking the bucket slowly for the past couple of years.

I understand amps up to a certain degree anyway. But DACs. Oh man what a load of crapola. You can hook an oscilloscope up to a lightning to 3.5mm adapter and it has a perfect flat frequency response from 1hz to 20khz. Never seen any proof that people can tell a cheap from an expensive DAC. All these people saying their new $2000 DAC is more detailed than their $800 DAC... uhm okay for sure dude, whatever you say.

I wanted a pure sine wave inverter and by mistake I bought a modified sine wave inverter. The item was picked up by the first stage carrier from the seller when I found out and requested a return (wanted to cancel but no option was there). I hope they manage to cancel it before any heavy shipment charges take place

Where's this coming from? I feel like you should know I have a full analog surround setup so a sound card is required.

Oh it was nothing aimed at you, I got headphone amp dac myself. Just saw it and the advertising of the DAC and it made me go on a rant

@kmanmx What brand of DAC do you have? Been looking at a bunch of models for a while now and can't seem to make up my mind?

@PP Mguire Why the AIO?

I'm just using a Fiio K5 Pro desktop DAC AMP for my headphones.
