Hey /g/, I could use your suggestions.
I've purchased a Sennheiser PC 350 SE, and I'm looking to get the most out of them on a PC. I've heard you need either a DAC or a sound card with a built in amp. I'm not a super audiophile or anything, I just want good quality. That being said, money's not really an obstacle to a point ($100 and under is fine), I just don't want to waste money on overpriced stuff if /g/ knows better options.
Currently, looking at the E10k. The only question I haven't found reliably answered by googling is whether or not the mic will work fine still plugged into the on-board soundcard. I wouldn't think it'd need as much power as the headphones themselves, but I am not well versed in audio technology, and the results I've found from googling have been very mixed, some saying it's a huge hassle, it doesn't work right, others saying it's perfectly fine and they have no issues using the onboard for mic and a DAC for the headphones.
Thanks in advance, sorry for being so long winded.
