I like better quality than going straight from the PC to the amp, and as far as the budget, I'm not sure where to begin... I'm dumping a decent amount into the whole thing, so I don't want to cheap out, but then again, I don't wanna have to take out a loan on it, plus I have no idea of what kind of ranges I'm even looking at.
I'm not sure if something decent can be set up for $50, or if I'm looking at at least $200 and above.
