That's strange because Audio-Technica headphones have really low impedance and are easy to drive. I haven't done the math recently, but I recall a typical motherboard (1.5-2 volt) being able to drive those sort of headphones to 90+db. I agree that motherboards don't have a high enough output voltage to drive some speciality headphones. For the average person with gaming speakers or Sennheisers they brought at an electronics store, you should be good to go.

It's not strange at all. It's not only about the power at a given impedance.
Impedance is not a scalar.
And responses are not linear.

You can have an amp that drives a given speaker perfectly fine at, say, 1 kHz, but drives it like poo poo at 50 Hz or 10 kHz, or introduces so much distortion as you ramp up the output power it's essentially unlistenable.

Yes, audiophoolery is dumb. But oversimplifying things is just as dumb.

I get tinnitus+vertigo attacks on the left once a month or so.

The nice thing about it is tinnitus ramps up, so i get a warning the vertigo will kick in in a few seconds.

When Sandi goes to casting calls/auditions, does she tell the casting producer that her day job is VP for a $110 million video game company, and that she makes half-a-mil per year, and because she is so important and essential and does the work of at least six people she can only shoot after business hours or on weekends?

I sure hope so! I can't imagine she would ever do something unethical like work other jobs outside of CIG while backers pay her salary and house and car and first class airfare, etc.

Someone who is good at video editing should post the Starfarer commercial from the view of the Starfarer cockpit.

I think that would be pretty funny but I'm no :pgabz:

Maybe post it to some kind of jaunty tune that could be the ticket to success.

People focus on real strange things when it comes to audio. On-board audio is fine, if it sounds like poo poo it's probably because your speakers/headphones are poo poo

My considered opinion as a dude who listens to music at times is that speaker/headphone quality gives about 90% of the ~audible experience~ unless your setup is truly awful

I did a quick test with my onboard chip thats a realtek 887, which is basically the 892 thats in a lot of goon recommended boards and the cheapo SIIG I got 6 years ago. At 50% the siig sounds louder and has better bass than the realtek at 100% on my M50s. The difference is even more pronounced on my AD700s where it sounds completely anemic on the onboard vs the card. I'm just going from the point of output, not hissing or any of that. Both are basically the same in that case. I'm pretty sure the card doesn't have an amp or anything like that, but for whatever reason it just drives the headphones a lot better.

Mind you I'm sure this would be imperceptible to me if I wasn't already used to the sound card and only used my headphones on onboard and portable systems. Kinda like using a 1440p 144hz monitor and switching back to 1080p 60hz, its a pretty big gap once you get used to it.
