Hey, been following this forum and headwize for a while now and I am finally getting ready to put together a new system. This new system is going to include a new pair of Sony V6 headphones for my gaming and music listening use. This will be my first non-cheapie pair of headphones
I decided on the phones but I am not so sure about the sound card. On my current system I have an SB Live! Value but I don't know how to tell whether it will be good for my Sony V6 since I currently use cheapy speakers and cheapy headphones. I am not sure whether to just take the value and put it in my new system, get another SB Live except this time one of the newer 5.1 series cards, or get one of the "other" sound cards like the new Hercules card.
Do newer sound cards offer better output for headphones over my live value? I dont really have any need for 5.1 since I am using headphones anyway and don't plan on using speakers much.
Thanks ahead of time for any help you can give me in making my choice.
