[QUOTE="user 997, post: 150835, member: 997"] Good amplification could yield an improvement in the soundstage, but won't be very noticeable with the headphones you have. I think a DAC upgrade would yield a more noticable improvement that you are seeking. Something like the Musiland Monitor 01 US has a very decent DAC and headphone output for not too much money, but then again I don't know how it compares to the Creative X-Fi Go? Something like the EMU 0204 USB DAC might also be a worthwhile try. [/QUOTE]
