Topic: Babyface Pro, TC Electronic BMC-2 and beyerdynamic dt770 250ohms.
Hi Guys.
10+ years DnB music producer here, and I'm in the market for a new soundcard since my old saffire Pro14 no longer works with windows 10 because of the IEEE not being supported by windows anymore.
I'm really interested in the Babyface pro, but have a few questions.
Will the babyface not perform optimally with my 250ohm DT 770s? I hear people say I may need a headphone amp due to impedance. If it's not enough then will my BMC-2 DAC pair well with the babyface? or should I sell it as it won't be needed? Or would selling the DT 770s be better? If The DT 770s wont be loud enough and the BMC-2 isnt a great pair with the Babyface what would you suggest as replacements for headphones?
Am I just overthinking things?
I have no need for recording instruments or vocals, My only interest in getting a new soundcard is to improve the clarity and detail in audio out of my speakers/ headphones so that I can make better mixing decisions and better decisions when im designing synth sounds. Im 100% ITB, and to put it simply all I want is to get the best combination of gear that works well together so that if my mixdowns and sound design still sucks I only have myself to blame, not any of the components in my setup.
