HiFi audio typically is 44.1 kHz / 16 bit, which is CD quality. If you stream high-resolution audio from apps like TIDAL or Apple Music, be sure whatever external sound card you choose supports the highest bit depth you stream. Mac setup is often even easier - all users have to do on most occasions is connect the device and select it as an audio source from the sound settings on the Mac. Getting started on a PC might require you to download and install software drivers that typically come with the device. USB sound cards are easy to set up, and just as the name suggests, they connect to your computer via USB. The option mentioned above is the most futureproof, and it will guarantee you years of reliable service. For our top picks, we looked for products that utilize a USB-C connection to link with a computer or a gaming console.
Every external sound card on this list packs one (or more) audio jacks for connecting headphones, speakers, and additional gear like external microphones.
