This will be my first post, and first foray into high-end audio equipment...I am building a new computer which will serve as my media center as well and I have a set of Klipsch 2.1 speakers for movies and such, but I am looking to get Denon D2000 or Sennheiser 595s for music mostly (I listen to ALL types of music so hopefully these will be good all-rounders...)
Using an HT Omega Striker sound card, I want to hook my headphones up to an amp first, but I can't spend $400 on a desktop amp...is there anyway I can use a toslink to mini-plug adapter, and hook that to an ibasso portable amp or some amp of the sort, then plug the headphones into the amp? Or do I NEED a desktop amp to be happy with either set of headphones? if any of this isn't clear, i'll try to be clearer/more succinct tomorrow, at 130 i tend to ramble...thanks for any advice!
