dburne Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) Ok so in the Vive Pro 2 thread in discussing audio solutions, getting an audio dac was mentioned. I hate to say that is all new to me. I did a search and saw several results listed for dacs. I am wondering if one of those might be better for me? A little background. I have always preferred running earbuds either to my VR headset audio jack or more preferably now to my onboard Creative sound jack for my motherboard. I have owned Rift, Rift S, Quest, Index, and soon (tomorrow) I will have the new Vive Pro 2. I prefer the earbuds as it does great isolating ambient noise and I feel more immersed in the game that way. Plus by using my onboard Creative sound I have all kinds of adjustments I can make to get the sound where I like it best. Now it has been mentioned I could get a Dac and plug it into the Vive Pro 2 headset USB-c port. Would this method give me as good or maybe even better audio than I am currently getting with my setup? I enjoy deep rich sound with good bass. So one can just plug a dac into a usb port and automatically have audio? Would I have access for adjustments to audio? Thanks for any tips, I am truly a dummy on this.
