I never understood that. Have better opamps on the xfi elite pro and then the breakout box negates the benefit of having the elite pro.
So, either I do the mod on the breakout box. Or on the card itself and get a good headphone amp.
Either way, I assume that only one opamp needs to be replaced to achieve the mod if you are only using it for headphones (even with CMSS). Is that correct?

I'm using a Doge 6210 tube amp for my K701s, while my other headphones don't need any amp and are driven straight out of the X-Fi. I would just mod the card and use an amp (if you need an amp at all). The Elite Pro should be even better than the regular X-Fi because of the better DACs.
