Well my first post after lurking for a long long time. I recently purchased a Beyerdynamic DT770 pro(80 ohms) headphones. I have a x-fi fatality to connect them to. Wondered if the drive bay worked as an amp? I also ebayed a cmoy amp. Never used one but if i don't like it i can always use it for the ipod. Now I was wondering about a more permanent desktop headphone amp but i don't want to spend too much like up to $250.I don't have the time to try to build my own so any suggestions Now this all depends on what they headphones sound like out of the x-fi.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Kinda sorta.
It does have a relatively high current output stage but so does the front channel output on the back of the card so feel free to file that in the fwiw catagory.
This is what I used with the DT770 80 ohmers--------->

That is the PA2V2, not the PPAV2. The PPAV2 is a whole different animal and in a different league than the PA2V2. There's a pic here:
http://tangentsoft.net/audio/ppa/. It's a DIY design, so the casing varies a lot. If you're considering the PA2V2, I'd skip it and go for a PINT instead.
Edit: Damn MisterX with the quickness.
