I find it hard to believe that an amp would make any difference when being driven from the sound card. Sure if it was being used with a mp3 player it would make a HUGE difference...but from the sound card?... My HD555's are stunning from my X-Fi. It's unbelievable really. I guess I'm just sceptical. Maybe I should find an amp to try...
