So I have never had a decent set of headphones before and don't know how loud I can listen to things on them. Using them unamped on my onboard audio, can I blow them out if I turn the volume up in Windows? Or are these things designed to take at the very least whatever my PC can throw at them?
Using a couple year old Gigabyte motherboard with on board Realtek audio stuff.
It's not that I am playing them loud enough that I feel like I was front row at a concert when I take them off, but some of the files I have are a bit crappy and they sound bad on the phones, not because the 840s are bad, but because the music is garbage quality. I hear pops and static in them that I never noticed before, will that damage them? Almost sounds like my crappy headphones if you turn them up too loud, how those couldn't handle the sound, but these maybe are just bringing all that to light.
Or something.
(right forum this time, sorry about that)
