Hello everyone. need a little help.

So after two months I finally got my SoundBlaster Z from my cousin who've come from US.

I have already mentioned in this forum that I'm having low volume and crappy sound issues with my Sennheiser Momentum over-ear with Realtek ALC1150.

so I need to know if momentum will work fine with SBZ or I'm gonna have that same low volume and sound issues? I also read that SBZ can damage the headphones drivers.

the headphones have 18ohms and SBZ have 22ohms output impedance.

I don't wanna test the card, it's new and sealed otherwise I'm gonna have difficulties selling it here.

should I sell SBZ and get Fiio E10K or something like that. budget will be around $80.

thanks

Wow... the sound blaster has pretty high output impedance...
I believe it's worth it to get the FiiO E10K
