I'm currently during the week at one place (A) and during the weekend at another (B) and have to take my soundcard with me so I can use my surround system + headset at place A and my headset at place B. Now I've decided to look into getting a secondary sound card / audio interface for place B and am asking for recommendations here.
Mandatory requirements:
- Must feature at least one 6.3mm / 3.5mm audio jack input
- Must feature at least one 6.3mm / 3.5mm audio jack headphone output
- Must use USB for power-supply and data connection to the computer
- Must suppport Windows (10)
- Must feature decent quality of the involved audio components
- Must be able to feed 80 Ohm headphones
- Must feature at least 48kHz / 16 bit sampling
- Must stay below 100€ in price, there's no problem at all if the price is around 50€
Optional requirements:
- May feature excellent quality of the involved audio components
- Should feature a 192kHz / 24 bit sampling rate
- Should be as cheap as possible, but may trade better quality / sampling rates against a higher price
