Hey guys ,I'm interested in buying an amp for my Koss Pro DJ100 , I was debating between buying a soundcard or an amp , but some people told me the amp is better , so here I am , in search for a decent low priced amp , I do not want to spend much , ~80 euros or such , I would much appreciate recommendations that are NOT us restricted , I live in the EU .
I was thinking about this one , https://www.avstore.ro/amplificatoare-casti/fiio-e11k-kilimanjaro-2/

Can anyone help me? It doesn't have to be a portable amp , in fact I would prefer if it were not , I will use it at my PC only.

If it is at your PC only, then I would use the Fiio E10K.

Does a headphones amp sound better with a soundcard? Or it does not matter if the soundcard is integrated . I have a choice between Asus Xonar DG , Asus Xonar DGX , Asus Xonar DS and Asus Xonar DSX alongside the amp mentioned above. Should I get any? Or should I stick to the amp only.

For music (not gaming), the E10K is all you need. It is a USB DAC + Amp, which means it will also be your soundcard, If you get one of the Asus products you mentioned, then you do not need the Fiio E10K.

Oh , alright , so which is better in fact? The amp or the sound card? I can get one of the above cards for like 30 euros , the amp is 90.
