Best sound card for 7.1 headphones.

Trying to help a friend out on what soundcard to get for the 7.1 headphones he is going to get. These http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826153089


Correct me if i'm wrong, but i'm under the impression that you need an output for a 1/4" headphone plug for 7.1 headphones to work with surround sound.

no one can answer my question? ='[

depends on how much he wants to spend on a sound card. i would suggest this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829180006 it makes the 2.1 jack compatible with 7.1 audio devices

Tiamat sucks. I thought they were great until i got AD700's


but, a xonar DX is cheapish and will get the job done.
