Need any external equipment?

[TheWiiPanda]

Hey all,

 

I got the Sennheiser HD 598 Special Edition headset, and I was wondering if I need to get anything special to go with it. It's plenty loud on my motherboard audio, but is audio quality hurt by the lack of other equipment? If I do need other hardware, are there internal solutions? I don't have much space for anything USB or something like that. 

 

My motherboard is the Gigabyte Z97X-SLI motherboard.

Get a schiit fulla if you really want to, if its loud enough for you now I would not bother.

Nope. If nothing is wrong with the current setup, why bother fixing/upgrading it?

The benefit is not justified with the current headphones you have. It's better to upgrade the headphones itself rather than getting an amp/dac or whatever you're thinking to get

Completly agree with you. Do you need an amp/dac to justify the sound upgrade? I don't think so. First gets a pair a headphones that really need an external equipment, and then we talk.
This is only a suggestion to reason and try to think again: what do i need?

Some people think an external amp/dac will suddenly upgrade their headphone when everything is already working fine, i kinda don't get it tho. If its already working fine why bother fixing it? although need and want are two different things

Sooo op do you NEED or do you WANT those external things? Need? nope you don't need them. Want? well there will be slight improvement but the price will not be justified with the slightly improved sound quality of the headphone, especially in this case.

They want gigantic metal bricks on their desk that makes fairy dust come out of their headphones.
