Hi,
I'm fairly new to the headphone world so I'd like to ask the old timers if the Sennheiser HD595 would work with the Asus Xonar Essence ST sound card? I've heard some people saying something about ohms and such which might not be compatible or something.
Do you think I still need to buy an external amplifier for the HD595 or would the Xonar Essence's amplifier suffice? If so, what would you recommend and how would I connect it? Will this also bypass the Asus Xonar Essence? I'd hate that cause I just purchased the Asus Xonar.
Another thing is, the HD595 would be my best bet for music/gaming right? I plan to use the Zalman ZM-MIC1 clipon mic with it. (Unless you can recommend me a much better mic). I used to look at the Sennheiser PC350 but a lot of bad comments said that it's music quality as well as the comfort factor is FAR from the 595. True?
Thanks in advance.
