On the plus side, the layout of the board is nice. The cost is not high. Playing a CD through the system sounds good. But the negatives are many. Don't get me wrong, I like the concept.
Positional audio is very, very cool.
I just think the execution here is not even in the good category. I'll assume other folks have had good luck with their cards, like the Diamond Monster MX300 or whatever. But my experience, this card is as squirrely as they come. They made a good effort. But I would highly discourage people to go this route.
