Not too long ago i bought a new PC. I went with a RTX 4090 and a i7-14700k. That has lit my love for games again. But my sound was lacking, i just had a pair of Beyerdynamic DT-990.
So i bought a pair of Genelec 8020D and a SVS SB-1000 and that is so much better. My DAC is a MiniDSP Flex at the moment.
But now i want to listen to my games with more than two channels, so i have ordered a pair of Neumann KH80 DSP for 900€, which i think is a nice price and i was interested in comparing them to the Genelecs anyway. I'm looking for either a single KH 80 or a single 8020D to have a 5.1 channel system complete.
But obviously i don't have a DAC for it. I think i should get a MiniDSP Flex HT to solve that, it takes multichannel signals via HDMI or USB, bvut only in PCM format. Usually i watch pirated movies on my computer, so i guess VLC will output PCM and the MiniDSP Flex HT will feed them to my speakers, right? It shouldn't matter what kind of sound format the movie has, right?
