You can jump straight to Edifier C3 without a soundcard first.
If you are not satisfied then only upgrade it next time

Edifier C6 is for light entertainment
DA5000PRO suits TV usage more


though both are able to connect to tv media but DA5000PRO performs better wink.gif

what would you guys think to get is better the ediffier r2000 or the swan d1080-IV? in terms of looks the d1080 kills it but is around a 100 more expensive than the r2000

hi.

recently I was introduced to sound bar by a friend of mine. It was amazing sound. don't really remember the brand. for me like the same with 5.1 set up.

so is a sound bar really worth it or a 5.1 set up better?

Soundbars are for setups that have limited space. They do not sound as good as a real 5.1 speaker setup. Of course, 5.1 speaker setup is way better. wink.gif

if you have enough budget for sound card, then i suggest you add it into speaker's budget, since this price range speaker wont get much improvement from dedicated sound card

I listen to any, but not much on bass. But it would be better if the bass of the speaker is good.
