[hybridauth_Google_103459332638233084343]

Hello, first of all I'm sorry if I did not posted my question in the right place.

So, I would like to know if this sound card can be associated with those speakers, will this alliance be good ? I absolutly do not know enything in the hifi world accordingly I don't know if it's a good idea to buy a sound card instead of an amplifier I aswell do know if the outpouts on the sound card are the good ones to work with those speakers (can you tell me the name ?)....

Thank you

The essence soundcards are not for powering speakers the have an amp for powering headphones.

You can use it to feed an amp or dac / amp though to power speakers - generally excellent Sound Cards
