I'm looking to upgrade from my current set of headphones, but the two I've tried so far haven't worked amazingly on my system, in fact, they were actually quite quiet, a lot moreso than my current set (Philips Fidelio X2) - I was able to turn up the volume on these headphones to make it similar to that of my X2's but I in all honesty don't know why that difference exists. My system has an EVGA NU Soundcard inside; should I be looking at something else to pair with the headphones?
The two pairs I've tried so far are:
Both didn't really work for me, but part of it comes down to the "loudness" of the headphones, it felt like they were almost "underpowered" which surprised me as I expected the opposite. Do I need to buy an AMP first because my soundcard isn't powerful enough for those headphones?
