When I listen to music on my media PC, it sounds a lot better than from my laptop, even though I use the same headphones
Though with my laptop, I'm plugging them directly into the side, while on my media PC they get plugged into a full Denon AV receiver, which has an optical connection to the PC, which has a dedicated Sound Blaster Audigy card
I wonder why it sounds so much better though
Maye I should buy an AVR for my laptop, then my music will be better
