Not quite Maximum sound, Guillemot

by con_mcb , Apr 29 '01
Pros: Good price, surround sound, optical out
Cons: Driver problems, No Win2k support, can't handle high frequency sound, dodgy microphone in
After downloading some new drivers for my SB AWE 32, the sound went to hell on my computer. It was so terrible, I frankly don't want to talk about it.

The card was 6 years old and had certainly had a good innings so I strode in a my local...

At least it's surround sound...

by nerdcage , Jan 29 '01
Pros: Good price, easy install. Digital out.
Cons: Poor Capture, not Win2K compatible.
I picked up a set of 3D surround sound speakers with sub woofer. The only thing left to get was the sound card to support it. I wasn't looking to spend a ton of money, and this card fit the bill. Four months later, I'm looking for a new card.

Good if you aren't an Audio Perfectionist

by heavyd1850 , Oct 14 '00
Pros: price, some hardware effects, quad sound
Cons: if you want perfect sounding audio it has some downfalls in quality

Good try, but not quite

by phogen , Aug 21 '00
Pros: Supports all 3d audio formats, cheap
Cons: sub-par sound quality on music
I believe this is Guillemot's first try in the soundcard area. The definitely make a good run at it. If you look at the features of this card it looks like a contender. It uses a new yamaha chipset that is the first to support DirectSound, EAX and A3D,...

Cheap surround sound?

by clicq , Jan 30 '01
Pros: Cheap, various 3d sound format support, 4 speaker and digital out
Cons: Lacking Win2K support, driver updates slow
I bought this sound card when I built a new computer. I picked it mainly for its price and 4 speaker and digital output support. I paid about $50 about 6 months ago.

Hardware
This card is based on Yamaha's YMF7xx chipset (if you...
