I currently have some hd 595 which i love and use on my ipod and desktop. They sound very nice but i wanna go to the next level. Im contemplating getting a pair of hd 650s. Will my sound card a 200$ 'ASUS Xonar Essence stx' make these headphones really shine or do I need an upgrade?
Answer
Maybe, however if it is a crappy headset, that will change nothing, the sound will still be lousy.

How to connect Asus Xonar sound card to studio monitors?
Jack
I have an Asus Xonar Essence STX, and a pair of KRK Rokit 8's which have balanced TRS input and unbalance RCA input.
What's the best way to connect the two and what cables do I need?
Here is a link to the spec of the sound card:

Answer
Seeing the nice monitors which you have, it would be better to purchase a sound interface by Edirol, M-Audio, ESI or Tascam for example, as an ASUS Xonar Essence STX does not do justice to your KRK Rokit Powered 8 monitors. Make sure to use the supplied ASIO drivers for your ASUS Xonar Essence STX.
You will need to use the RCA jacks on your ASUS Xonar Essence STX and connect them to the jack plugs on your KRK Rokit Powered 8 monitors, so you will need a cable which has RCA jacks on one side, white and red, and on the other end the cable should have two jack plugs, those large ones, such as which you find on large headphones for example. The ones found on in ear headphones are those small ones, but you will need those big jack plugs.
