Yeah, I know that, but I'm talking about the relation between the output impedance of the sound card and the nominal impedance of the headphones. I read somewhere there's a rule that says the output impedance of the Amp should be less than 1/8th the headphone impedance. Otherwise, there can be sound distortion, and the headphones may sound differently than they were originally tuned. That's what I am referring to.
As far as I know, some russian hardware reviews site measured the output impedance of the ZxR as being around 40 ohm. Even STX has 10 ohm output impedance. Maybe I should pick this up instead to drive the 598s.
