Portability is the main Culprit.. Everyone wants to listen on the go & think a portable amp is just as good being coupled with a non portable headphone that is hard to drive. & people commonly mistaken volume with being driven well.. I could get the 340/Sextett very loud using my receiver, but it couldn't drive them well.. While the HR2 did wonders for them.. To me, buying the HD800 will the sole intent on using it with a sound card is silly. If you spend 1,400 for a headphone you can at least spend 400 to drive it adequately.
