Hello! First post here so apologies if I say something stupid.
Just purchased a laptop (ASUS g74sx-xn1) and I've been told the audio quality is quite poor. I also purchased the Klipsch Image X10 and Triple Fi 10's for Black Friday from Amazon, and was wondering if I could use one of those earphones for my laptop for music and gaming. I'm in the process of reformatting the laptop so I haven't been able to test myself, but I play mostly FPS and RTS and RPG's so audio is pretty useful. I'm assuming the Triple Fi's would be better for games since they have more drivers?
If you have any recommendations on any amps/easily portable (I travel a lot) sound options (USB preferred, probably a DAC) that would help for gaming (I've never tested Fiio's so I don't know how they are or NuForce). I shy away from gaming company products because of the whole headset/true surround sound gimmick and think you guys would know better on what to recommend...thanks!
