Then it sounds like there's something wrong with your card. Mine has no such volume issues with the Q701.
BTW, every sound card has a headphone amp. Sound Blaster just likes to market theirs like it's something unique, which it's not. Clearly they're doing a good job.
If you don't need/want the little volume knob thingy on the Zx, just get the Z. They're the same thing otherwise.
Still is right, if your on-board sound is disabled (Plus drivers up to date) and the card is doing that then it is a defective card. I have the exact setup as you with the K612 pros and Sound Blaster Z. It pushes the K612s easily.
