Studio Monitor Question??

[FiVeL]

I was wondering if I need to get a power amp to run a studio monitor? Or can I just hook it up strait to my soundcard?

I'm assuming you mean monitors. "passive" monitors need an amp, whereas "active" monitors have amps built in.

Nah, he used too many periods. I'd give it a 7.
