Ok so pretty much im new to this and dont know that much about it yet. Im interested in buying the HD650, changing from my sony MDR-XB500.
Im using this on computer only, right now im using an old Creative X-Fi xtreme music i think, so I know i need an amp to drive the 650s. My question is, which would be the best setup?
Before i was thinking of either going with the ASUS Xonar Essence STX or the HT | OMEGA Claro Halo XT. Bu after reading everywhere, I saw someone say that neither of these have an actual dedicated headphone amp (shrug) , and so people were talking about using an external amp and a DAC.
I really dont liky my old sound card anymore since they dont update their drivers and it sometimes buggs out ( sound goes away and i have to reboot, or random screeech noises lol) but if im outputing digitally to a dac or however it works and i dont need to upgrade the sound card thats ok too.
Sorry if i butchered everything , but im really new to all this so im sure im wrong here and everywhere else lol, patience please! , Thanks in advance for any help you can spare for me <3
