Just a quick question here...
I have a set of Beyerdynamic DT770 pro headphones, and both experience and reading articles online have told me that they take a lot of power to drive. I have a Creative X-Fi Xtreme Music soundcard, and I was wondering if that was enough to effectively drive them. How does using a sound card like that compare to an amp? I know it won't compare to a hugely-expensive amp, but is the sound card sufficient?
