Hello Everyone,
(my very first post so I hope it's not in the wrong forum)
I'm planning to buy an AKG K-701.
Right now I have a Sennheiser HD-595 driven by an external soundcard the EMU-0404 USB.
It has the AK4396 DAC.
Does anyone have any experience regarding how sufficing is something like EMU-0404 and it's DAC for driving the K-701?
If you think that EMU-0404 isn't enough and I should get an amp please tell me what do you recommend, and why are those certain amps better, and in what aspects than my EMU-0404.
EDIT: Maybe I should have asked if the actual headphone output and it's amplifier on EMU-0404 is sufficient for K-701 not only the DAC.
And when I mean sufficient I'm not only talking about volume level but SOUND itself.
Thx
