Hi, I have a quick question about my sound card.
Some time this week I should be getting a pair of Philips Fidelio X1 headphones and my plan was to plug them straight into my Essence STX, however, the output impedance has me a bit concerned that it won't pair well with these headphones. Will there be a problem? Also if there is going to be a problem, is the impedance due to the built in amp on the sound card and could I resolve it by plugging in a separate amp via the RCA outputs?
Sorry if these are noob questions as I am still learning about audio equipment so any advice will be much appreciated!
Thanks.
