Pros: Decent four speaker sound. SPDIF ports for connecting to the latest amplifiers Cons: Digital sound not available for all output, only power DVD DTS stereo for movies
I was looking for a 6 channel sound card for my backup system. I have a early version of the Hercules Muse which is a decent card but doesn't have all the bells and whistles that some sound cards have. This card uses the Cirrus Logic Sound Fusion...
Pros: Good value, optical digital outputs, seperate headphone connector Cons: Odd proprietary analog audio connector. Lose it and you're in trouble.

Pros: optical jacks Cons: no 64 hardware voice acceleration any more

I think this is the best card for the money period. The card itself is Hercules standard blue, which is nice. It was very easy to install, as any sound card should be. The option menus for the card are very slick and easy to use. The 20bit DAC makes...
Pros: sound quality.
features.
price.
Seperate headphone jack.
Good support. Cons: Digital output won't sync with Minidisc!
This card gives you a very nice set of features and sound quality for a good price.
