Specs on that auzentech look pretty good, If I bought that I think i'd have to clean my ears more often though :/

Heh, never heard from the company till now, but hey the Omega card looks like a quality product.

Learned something new today.

Terratec cards can be quite nice, I have the DMX 6Fire in another PC. Nice SQ.

They seem to support 64bit Windows flavours as well, which is nice

All good suggestions here thankyou

I saw a Auzentech card on scan and liked to look of it:

But its been on pre-order since forever. I've seen it in stock elsewhere so i might go for that

I'd say wait for the new X-Fi based Auzentech card

any ideas when this will be available?

Keep a close eye out as stock levels don't appear to have been exactly plentiful. Shops have only just started getting stock this past week or so. I'm guessing that stock will quickly dry up.

Its an excellent card that one. It might be a bit too much of the bells and whistles for you though? Sounds great in 2 channel, when connected to a decent av amp via optical or coaxial digital

Thank you

There'll be others too I assume.

Yeah there is load of the x-meridian around, but the x-plosion is another game althogether

Wow, they`re everywhere this week. Too bad I just flew to Akihabara in Tokyo and spent 3 hours walking around trying to find one. BTW Akihabara is so over. The prices are all insane (higher than UK online prices), they don`t negotiate at all, and many of the PC components shops are closing - being replaced by weird otaku shops and maid cafe`s. At least I found one eventually but I might as well have just ordered it online if I knew they`d be available this week. But.....I also picked up an Onkyo SE200PCI soundcard, and this thing looks wicked...will probably use this instead of the Auzen anyway.

i think im guna get that auzentech one when i replace my XFI. Looks the dogs!
