Soooooo... I looked all over and I'm getting various opinions which make me more and more confused.
The amps/dacs I am looking to buy to help power the dt990 250 ohm pro's is the fiio e10k. I currently have a xonar dg sound card in my pc that I don't mind bypassing because I don't use the dolby headphones on it really at all. I initially put it in there as a small upgrade from on-board sound when I build my pc. As for the fiio e10k some people are saying they are not good to power the headphones and other say they work beautifully. So I am just a little confused.
My question basically is: Does the fiio e10k power the Beyer DT990 250 ohm pro headphones and the reach a reasonable volume while still sounding great? OORRRR... Should I just get an amp and use my xonar dg as my source/dac? and what amp would be a good suggestion? budget ~130ish.
Thanks for any help you give to this audio noob!
