Audio Setup

[jaytrl]

So... I have a 32" Insignia/Roku TV that I'm using as a monitor for my desktop PC. The PC is connected via HDMI cable to the TV and I have an Optical out connected to a Sony Soundbar. The sound from my PC is outputted to the soundbar, the way I like it. However, I'm trying to upgrade my Audio setup by purchasing a DAC/Amp combo. My soundbar currently only has HDMI and optical connections. I was going to purchase this AMP: http://a.co/d/4ILYkO4 and connect it to my TV monitor via USB, with this mic (http://a.co/d/2El5uvE) connected to the amp, and use some xlr splitters (http://a.co/d/5OYYIdi) to connect the mic to my PC so I can Skype with friends through the Amp on my PC. Then I finally realized that this particular Amp does not have an Optical output for my soundbar. Hopefully, everything I've typed so far has made sense. lol. Well does anyone know of, or have any recommendations to an AMP/DAC that can fulfill my needs? Please let me know if you do and I appreciate any help, suggestions, criticism, etc. Thanks in advance!

The 2i2 is not an amp.

It is an audio interface.

It outputs it's own audio from the back and it's analog audio not digital.

You still need to connect the sound bar to the computer through optical and not use 2i2 as output.

 

Also, I have no idea how you're trying to connect it through USB to your "TV monitor"

Do you mean computer?

Because a tv and a monitor are not the same thing, and you can't connect an audio interface to either of them.
