Now, this is probably a dumb question. But would a asus xonar dg be a "ok" match for the philips x2? Its output impendance is only 10 ohm, compared to the essence stx 36 and dx 100 ohms. Sure, they don't have a amp. But do you need that for the x2? Even a galaxy s4 can drive them at a...

Well talk about shame. My xonar dx has broken down (was so dusty it got damaged, constantly outputs noise now). So now im driving my new x2 with the onboard audio card (P8Z68-V PRO/Realtek ALC892). Atleast it has a headphone amp.   Will have to look around for a decent, but not to expensive...

Hi Im looking for a soundcard to replace the ALC892 on my motherboard. What it will be used most for is movies and gaming.   The cards iv been looking at is X-Fi Titainium (820 sek / 127 usd) and ASUS Xonar DX (738 sek / 114 usd). You realy have to love the VAT in Sweden.  ...

Edited. Decided to go with PC360 headphones. Just wondering how they are for movies, and what Soundcard would be recommended to drive them. Would Asus Xonar DX be able to show them at their best with dolby headphones enabled?
