Need help picking a soundcard and headphones
Ah sorry, I should have listed it. Thought I did actually. My budget is around $300-350 (that includes soundcard, headphones and a potential amp) - the cheaper the better. I don't have that much money to spend on this unfortunately. I play mostly new games. Modern Warfare 2, Battlefield 3...- Marest

[Help] Want to take the step into better audio
Well, the PC360 together with the Xonar DX seem to be what I'm aiming at currently. But, given proper headphones, is there a nice (and cheap) microphone solution that I could pick up? I'm thinking about a clip-on, as I'm not a huge fan of table-stand microphones. Any suggestions?- Marest

[Help] Want to take the step into better audio
Quote: Thanks for the reply Nupie. I'll give the search function a go (I searched earlier for both the Xonar DX and the AKG K 242 but nothing of interest came up; the Xonar DX had 1 review and it was fairly poorly written). But, I'll give it another go and scout the forum threads that...- Marest

[Help] Want to take the step into better audio
Added the ATH-M50 to the list, although they are borderline too expensive for me at 1600 SEK. Anyway, I was thinking about going for the AKG K 242 HD together with an ASUS Xonar DX. Any comments on that? Good choice/not a good choice?- Marest

[Help] Want to take the step into better audio
I would like to take the step onto "entry-level" audiophile sound equipment. I'm more specifically looking for a pair of really nice headphones that will more or less blow my mind. To go with that, I'm more than confident that I would need a stand-alone soundcard. Current system: I'm using...- Marest
