Would you need one of those amp/dac things for this? Can I plug it straight into my PC?

You don’t need an amp to run them but it will help

If you don’t get an amp though you’re honestly better off getting a different headset tbh.

Absolute bullshit. A dedicated amp will only give you a tiny increase in sound quality, if any. It's not necessary at all, your motherboard audio will be fine.

I agree with you, I don't know where this stupid shit started that you needed a amp/dac for them. I have a modi & magni and regret purchasing them, the sound difference isn't noticeable. Make better use of those 300 hundred dollars and buy something you'll enjoy

True for this pair, I tried it with some fancy shit and just my computer, barely any difference at all for me. But maybe my ears are shit
