I was looking to buy the Ultrasone HFI-580's, however I asked someone I know about them and he said I would definitely need a sound card in my PC in order to use them to their full potential. I was wondering if anybody knew how necessary it was to have a sound card for using the HFI-580 headphones? I wasn't really looking to pay additional money for a sound card on top of this $130 set of phones, especially if the card is going to be in the $100-range. ![Frowning2 :frowning2: :frowning2:](https://cdn.head-fi.org/e/people/frowning2.svg)
Could someone help me out with this? If the HFI-580 is going to require me to get an expensive sound card, could someone recommend me the next-best pair of headphones that won't require a sound card but would still be able to produce high-quality sound? (Specifically for a variety of metal music, occasional heavy/deep dubstep, and occasional gaming)
