There are two issues I am trying to address, and I have the impression that the solution is one right purchase away… I’ve been inspired by the abundant material and suggestions in the several threads on DAI/recording/electronics stuff, but still got a doubt and could find no clarification, here or elsewhere on the internet. And I definitely trust the people here more than the rest of the internet
To the point: I’ve got old speakers from a hi-fi stereo that I would like to try and recycle, connecting them to the pc. Only RCA input, no external power. It’s mainly for general purpose, but if that could work for bass too it wouldn’t be bad…
Is any DAI with RCA output enough to power the speaker(s) or it’s necessary to add a pre-amp? If there are suitable DAI (or other hardware), what should I look for in terms of specs?
Thanks for any help
