I just decided to go with the 1080p I5 XPS15 Thanks for the advice all.

At this point it looks like it's between the XPS15 with an I5, and the Razer blade stealth. I am torn, because I like the SSD in the razer more than the storage in the XPS, but I like the larger screen and quad core in the XPS. I also don't like all of the bloatware that dell ships. Does anyone have hands on experience with either or preferably both of the laptops that can weigh in?

Okay, as the title says, I need a $1300 laptop/ultrabook. That is my absolute maximum price. I have been looking pretty heavily at the Razer Blade Stealth QHD, with 256gb of storage. That prices out to $1120 after my razer student discount. "Must Haves" Metal construction 256gb of storage At least 2 hours of battery life under modest load Good color at least 1080p, preferably higher minimum 12" not a tablet/convertible (I don't trust the durability) Windows I will be using this as a school computer, not gaming, and it would be a plus if I can run photoshop on it. This is going to replace my old and dying Sager NP7370, which is just too large and too heavy for use as a school computer.

I need a 7.1 dac, I would prefer if it was PCIe based, but I can settle for an external device if it is a better quality. I just bought a Denon AVR1909, and I need a card that can feed it 7.1 via something I can convert to RCA. My budget is around $200 bit I would like to spend less. I need each channel separate because I am a film maker and my software can only see each channel if it is analog, so optical/spdif is out of the question. So ultimately, I need a 7.1 DAC so I can edit audio in 7.1.

I would personally think that a matte or eggshell gunmetal grey would look really nice.

The easiest, but the least upgrade-able and with the lowest quality.

First off, to get XLR into your computer you'll need a preamp. I recommend something like this or something else from Scarlet. All of them have live audio output. In addition, the benefit of this is that you'll get a higher quality sound out of your microphone, and you'll also have the ability to change mics in the future if you don't like the one you have. I would also recommend the AT2035 bundle you have linked.

Slight Edit, it would be useful if the monitors posted are available in the USA, as that is where I am located.

I don't need anything crazy like 10 bit color or anything, as although this will be used for color work, I don't need perfect color, I have an iMac that I can use to do color correction.

I am looking for a good 1080p monitor to compliment my PB287Q. I need it to have vesa mount and the cheaper it is the better. Requirements: 1080p Less than 27" IPS Vesa mountable Wants: Cheap I am a video editor so this monitor would be used as an output preview monitor and mounted to an arm to go next to my current monitor.

I want a new phone. I currently am running a Nexus 5 running CM 11, however I feel like I want to upgrade to a newer device. I am looking at the LG G4 which is only $439.97 [Link] However I am also looking at waiting for the Nexus 5X. Should I hold out and wait for the 5x, or just sell my nexus 5 now and buy the G4? I am also curious of about how much my nexus would be worth running CM 11, I haven't found any for sale that are already loaded with it.

What receiver is that a picture of?

Basically I need the ability to bypass any built in dolby surround and just have my PC tell each speaker when to make noise.

I am a video editor, and I like to mix my films in 5.1 audio. However my old receiver which had actual physical 6 channel input died. I need help finding a new receiver that still has a way to talk to all 6 channels independently. Previously I had the Denon AVR-1700. I need something with a similar capability to replace it. Any help would be vastly appreciated. I would also wouldn't care if it's 7.1/Atmos as long as it still has the ability for me to address each channel on it's own.

I understand that this isn't necessarily PC audio, but this is the only audio forum on here. I want to find a wireless microphone setup that supports at least two handheld wireless microphones. This is for my work. Ideally they would be able to be rack mounted. We have a budget of around $1000 for these. Any suggestions are welcome. I was looking at getting two of These They need to have a range of at least 200 feet.
