Thank you, Mick. I said sound card, but it's an on board motherboard
solution - unamplified TTBOMK. I think I'll be using the line-out on the
front of the case. It's not connected ATM, but I can soon sort that.


I run a 10 meter phono cable from motherboard sound to a valve amp on a
routine basis without any problems, if that helps.....



I didn't know the hi-fi term was contentious. My dad used to have a Pye
Black Box record player that claimed to be hi-fi and it sounded nice to
me.
Mind you, I hadn't had a chance to train my ears to listen to some of the
'thin' sounds we get today.
