Help me understand USB/DACxAMP for my desktop? I just recently bought speakers.
I mean - $3000ish for the PC without monitors but I get what you mean. I guess I could drop more but I didn't think that it would be valuable with the Swans given they're a lower end speaker system compared. I guess I could raise the price and try to get better quality/value, say 400 dollars...- HyperTooth

Help with understanding Ohms and Hertz?
Geez, you guys really know a thing or two behind the science of sound. It's amazing how much I am learning here, thanks guy! Keep it coming if you have anything to add to the conversation, I am all ears. So I figured out that the Harman/Kardon's have a lower Ohm rating than my sound...- HyperTooth

Help with understanding Ohms and Hertz?
What would you recommend then for a decent on/around ear portable headphone then? I've the Fischer Audio's but they seem to lack a decent bass and the treble sounds really odd to me. I like them for light listening occasions but they mostly collect dust in my closet. Thankfully my dad...- HyperTooth

Help with understanding Ohms and Hertz?
Ah, sorry if my question didn't come out correctly. I wasn't really concerned with my Sound Card at all, more so how Ohms and hertz affect my headphones. Why a 600 Ohms Amp/Dac would be bad for these but not those so to speak. (It works very well for my Sennheiser HD449's but not my...- HyperTooth

Harman Kardon Soundsticks III and a Creative Sounds Sound Blaster ZX sound card:
I was looking for something to compensate for my crappy TV speakers, I have about $150 to spend, I know not a lot but I am a college student and I am currently saving up for a pair of Alpha Dog's by Mr.Speaker headphones. So I searched and came across some Harman Kardon speakers in my price...- HyperTooth
