Your Ipod should give you a good sound. Do your Bose have no bass ports then? They surely must do but it seems as if you are not getting good bass?

So will a better soundcard help when it comes to feeding the signal from the computer? (and I didnt mention I have an external recording interface. that is actually where the sound is coming from, not directly out of the computer)

If you have an external then the sound is hitting another source again so it may well hinder the SQ. The less loops that sound has to go through, the better the quality. Obvious I know but this is when quality of leads comes into play. My HDMI lead from my cable box to HDTV cost me £95 at the time (18 months ago) that would have been about $140 dollars for a 1m lead.
If you are using good quality gear then your interconnects should be as good as you can buy too.

Many music producers have started using 384 kbps MP3 files as masters for compact disc burning. The best part of computer based music is you can use soundboard software to get a range of sound that you could never get from cd player and conventional amplifier. I can edit, remix, sample and dub music right on my home computer. I can record studio quality original music and use programs like Shoutcast to produce my own internet radio broadcast complete with cross-fading and volume levelling. The only setback is you can't do cool turntablist stuff on anything but a turntable. There is a degradation of quality on MP3s files that are transfered or ripped at a speed rate of lower than 250 kilobits per second. For instance, all of iTunes files are inferior quality because they all have a transfer speed of 128 kbps which is a loss in fidelity that is noticable to anyone with a good set of ears. On the other hand, all of Amazon's MP3 downloads are high quality 250 kbps MP3 files. |

I broadcast on Medium Rare radio which uses Shoutcast as a matrix. I'm currently taking a few weeks of because I'm doing extensive remodeling in my house and I've put everything else on hold.
I also do a dubwise reggae and worldbeat show on a newly christened high definition radio channel that's the local National Public Radio affiliate in St. Louis. I'd love to syndicate the show but duib, reggae and world beat music has a limited cult audience. |

I've got an OLD Memorex power amp that my dad got from a friend for me. It's been in a basement for like years. An Onkyo Tape deck that my dad bought when he was working at some big electronics supply warehouse in the 80's. And an Audio-Technica turntable. The speakers are these two custom made deals from the states, he got them for me for Christmas, and apparently they were a steal. It ain't the best set up, but I love it.
