Hi guys
I'm new at this site and I don't know much about head-fi, so I was hoping you could give me some advice...
I'm looking to buy a pair of headphones for my new computer. The sound card that came with the PC is onboard and of poor quality, so I'm guessing I also need to buy a new card. Would it be a good idea to buy a x-fi sound card?
The headphones are primarily for gaming; I appreciate a good bass when playing Crysis, CoD etc.
After reading a bit on this forum, I came to the conclusion that it wouldn't be a bad idea to buy the new JVC HA-RX900 - is this correct? Is there any other headphones, within the same price range, that I should consider buying?
Finally, is it necessary to buy an amp when buying such relatively cheap headphones? And do I need to have a certain amount of knowledge to set it up?
Thank you in advance
