Hey guys, I’ve been in the PC gaming for a while now and I’m deciding it’s time to upgrade my audio setup and need some help on where to start. I’m planning on buying the Superlux 668b’s based on Logan’s recommendation as well as basically everyone else on the internet. I want to know if I need a DAC or an amp as well. Right now I have to use my front panel headphone connector as I can’t get my motherboard audio to work. Would just plugging the headphones into the front panel be fine? Or should I invest in a DAC amp combo? Also, I’m a second year college student so I don’t have a disposable income, If I need a DAC amp combo I want it to be no more than $200. $150 would be ideal.
Thanks for your help!
You don't need one. So long as your headphones don't hiss and they get really loud it's fine. But if you want one go with either the SMSL SD793 the SMSL M3 or the FiiO E10k.
