    Lauen reacted to ShearMe in Which headset?   
    Not really. Modern onboard audio is pretty good. Soundcards are a dying breed.
    The FiiO E10 will be quite expensive in Sweden, so I wouldn't recommend it. If you really want a good source, look around for some local builders of the O2/ODAC combo units.

    Lauen got a reaction from ShearMe in Which headset?   
    Seeing as you don't need a mic, I recommend these http://www.prisjakt.nu/produkt.php?p=734934 The Sennheiser HD558's are very nice, the sound is very pleasing, it's open, so you'll get good positional audio in games, and they are very comfortable after a little bit of breaking in. 
     
    also, I found the AD700X. http://www.prisjakt.nu/produkt.php?p=2044934

    Seriously dude think for yourself for a second
     
    How can shipping be bad? It's not like they're going to strap it to a camel and whip it to your house. I'm talking about the cost of shipping that makes something look like a deceptively good deal. They are a credible retailer, they just don't typically have free shipping.

    The 6350 isn't worth $30 more. Get the 212 Evo + 6300.

    Blue Snowball is good. If you don't have desk space, get a snowflake and mount it on your monitor. However the Snowflake's drivers on Windows 8 are flakey. (Pun intended)

    like mayflower said get dt 990, AD 700x/ no x or the HD 558s. All of there are open headphones and as such they will have a much better sound stage than the M50s or any closed headphones for that matter.

    Those are good reference headphones for that price range. I think those would actually sound better then your speakers IMO.

    Alright, I tested my friends Appe Earpods today, and it seems atleast the button to play - pause - next - previous worked, so then if those JBL J33i's work the same, which I suppose they do, I will be getting those!

    Let them buy you the M30's, because free headphones. Sell them on eBay brand new in box. Use that money for COPs.

    Lauen reacted to Verne in Sound card = waste of money?   
    When I put a sound card (Xonar DG) to my old motherboard with a Via audio chip, there was a definite improvement. Later I got a whole new motherboard with a newer Realtek chip and I could not hear any real difference between the (old) sound card and the on-board chip. If you have a "modern" motherboard, sound card is most likely a waste of money.
     
    If the headphones are quiet, then you need an amp, not a sound card. Although a sound card can have an amp with it.
