Ive researched the internet the whole day, but with my really noobish knowledge about audio/Pc's hardware i couldnt find information that helps me.

I just ordered the AD700's, but it would be a waste of money if i keep using my crappy plug and play soundcard.

My budget is around $60 for a soundcard, i do not own an amp/dac or anything like that. I was looking for the AV-710, but at the moment there are no shops that ship internationally that sells them. Now i think about buying the Sound Blaster Audigy SE.

Soo, Im looking for a soundcard for around $60 (could stretch a bit higher if its worth it)

Creative has some good cards but at that price range you might want to look into some emu's, the 0202 is just a little less than $100 and I'm pretty sure it's a much better card.

The Emu 0202 is interesting, but sadly way of my budget because the expensive shipping costs D= total costs according to Ebay will be around $150..

Quik question, Most soundcards has multiple output jacks, for the subwoofer etc. Made for suround speakers systems (i could be terrible wrong) Will headphones sound good with a soundcard like that?
