What headphones can the X-Fi Xtremes take?

Hi there I have a SB0770 sound card and am considering purchasing the Beyerdynamic DT770-80ohm Pro headphones.

I have read on many occasions that these headphones require an amp to work to their full potential, is this true? I would have hoped my sound card could handle it, its pretty good.

Thanks guys

Hello, and welcome to THG.

If it requires an amplifier, I would look into something else. If you are fine without getting the amp, then you may have to live with no amp.
