Hello everyone, i have searched for an answer to this but haven't found a good one so i'll give it a try here.
I have bought the K702 65th Anniversary Edition from AKG and i am planning on buying the Asus Xonar Essence STX. I am going to be gaming, mixing music, and listen to music with them so i want something that is good for not just one thing and it seems like the STX will fit me good.
The question i have though is if the amp in STX will be good enough to give the headphones justice. I've heard the dac is great but the amp is less good, so with all my needs, do i need an external amp? If that is the case or if you think some other solution would fit my needs, what amp/solution do you think i should go with? I can go as high as to $300, maybe a little bit more if it's worth it.
I appreciate your help very much.
