I did some research and i found this video ,about its hard to notice any difference between amp and no amp.
what i will notice by buying amp or good amp?(i do not have golden ears so no taste in sound )
ps. volume now is high enough from my pc

Sound demo videos usually are not very reliable and tend to face compression. They should not be viewed as a guarantee that this is what the headphone sounds like. If you listen to a sound demo with another headphone you will get mixed results as your own listening equipment also has a sound signature. Demos give you a general idea.

There is also on some cases where you get people who cannot discern the sound differencesā€¦ which is fine, or they use a sound file that is not of high quality so theres less noticeable changes

did you get the 880?

if yes, then the answer should be obvious that noā€¦ the 880 does not have imaging issues.

do you have an amp driving the 880? is it powerful enough, is the dial needing to be above 85% to get ā€œloudā€?

If you do not have an amp, or the dial needs to be pushed too far get to a loud status then this can very well be the issue here.

Cannot speak of the validity of that particular test, as someone who has used 880 in competitive gamingā€¦ as well as knowing many many others who do the sameā€¦ it has zero issues with placements. As far as placing things in front, top, left, etc it also can take time to get adjusted based on the headphone and its respective stagingā€¦ or whatever your listening to

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvNjy6oruhA this is a youtube video but it is a good enough representation of imaging. Just used the 880 connected to my setup during that videoā€¦ no issues, could place all sounds in their respective direction including the details with everything
