| Post subject: | Xonar Sound Cards |
Has anyone here tried out Asus Xonar sound cards before? I bought a set of Audioengine A5+'s (http://www.gadgetreview.com/wp-content/ ... 50x433.jpg) a few months ago and I'm wondering if my Audigy 1 is holding them back. I've been looking at the Xonar Dx to replace it potentially but I'm still on the fence. |

No personal experience with them. But the reviewers seem to love them. i'd get one, but i'm still more than happy with my Auzentech HDA Xplosion i bought way back when. |

Ya, I've been seeing the reviews as well and most seem to say it's a step up from the Audigy 2 Zs's even, but most of what I listen to are 128-192 kbps MP3's so I'm wondering if that might be limiting it in either case. |

If all you're listening to are basic MP3's and you don't have a high end speaker setup then you won't hear enough difference for it to be worth the money. |

Basic MP3's yes, but the speakers are one of the highest rated computer speakers out there. It probably is overkill for "mostly" MP3's though. |

Had one in a post-fx machine at my old music studio. Worked great no complaints, wasnt expecting a high end card but it delivered. |
