Good day, new here in Head-fi.

This week hopefully my HD 55 would arrive. Im planning on using it at my office with an audigy 2 zs soundcard. currently im using it with my PX 100 and im quite satisfied with it.

my question is if i plug it in unampped, will it be alright? if not, cani t do with a fiio 5? in my place some good amps are hard to buy so i got limited options.

well i have searched the forums and still i haven't got the answers to my query. so hope somebody can help me

I've owned the Audigy 2 ZS and have the HD555 and used the combo for a while.

It will work but it's not ideal, the HD555s can go further. But try it out first before buying anything! That way if you decide you want to upgrade your source you will have a better idea about what you want from it.

Just try it. That sound card should have enough juice to power it but obviously it is not ideal. A clean source and amplification will help a lot with any type of headphone.
