So im looking for a nice sound card for 100$ish and under it needs to be PCI-e as my only PCI slot is blocked by my GPU.
As long as it is arround or under 100$ money isnt an issue and i want the best so I was looking at getting the ASUS Xonar DX however i would like to know if it has a headphone amp.
I am not trying to drive SH HD800s here but i would like to drive 60-80ohm headphones with this card (I might eventualy do100-150ohm but i HIGHLY doubt it)
It is NOT listed on any site that i found that there is a headphone amp but then when i was on asus's website doing some final digging on the card i found this
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/Audio_Card/Xonar_DX/e3859b_Xonar_DX.pdf
That is the manual for the card itself.
If you go down to page 19 where it shows how to connect headphones the text box below it would suggest that there infact is a headphone amp on this card
Thats where i get all confuzed
So does it or does it not have a headphone amp on the card?
Also does it amplify the front audio on your case too?
I was hopeing that someone who owns the card could awnser that question for me.
Thanks for your help.
