Hey guys,
I would consider myself a newbie to the world of audio, however not new to the world of electronics and computers (EE major). Anyway, I just recently bought a budget setup to start getting into the audio world, my setup just consisted of a new audio card for my (gaming) PC, the Xonar DG(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0045JHJSS/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i02?ie=UTF8&psc=1), and a set of Samson SASR850Cs (http://www.amazon.com/Samson-SASR850C-Studio-Reference-Headphones/product-reviews/B002LBSEQS) as I had read some good reviews. Got everything hooked up, and they seem alright, but I enjoy my 6 dollar in-ears better to be honest. They aren't near loud enough, and the bass is lacking (I realize these aren't supposed to be "bass-y" headphones, but still thought there would be more. So my question is, is there anything I can do to improve these? Are there settings within my sound card that I can alter to boost the volume more? Just would like some insight, because if this is the best I can get out of these headphones, I will probably just send them back and keep looking.
Thanks!
