Hello guys I recently started playing around with my onboard sound (965p-S3) and my F_Audio plugs on my case (Thermaltake Armor Jr) and noticed that my headphones sound horrible if i plug them into either the F_audio or directly into my mobo (yes I know... I know... Onboard sucks) and boy was the sound quality crap compared to when I plugged my headphones into my x-530's which I plan to get rid of soon to buy me a pair of MS-1's.
Now the question is, is it normal for audio quality to degrade when connected to F_Audio as opposed to plugging directly into a sound card? It seems strange to me that the sound i'm getting out of my speakers when connected to my x-530s sound better than being directly plugged into my mobo. Am I doing something wrong?
Oh yea and I Notice that there is no Headphone plug on the back of my mobo and other sound cards I'm looking at online... So where am I suppose to plug my headphones in?
