    Excellent external sound card for its price. Plug and play, it was recognized immediately without the need to install drivers. The sound is clear and noticeably better compared to my computer's built-in sound card. The 7.1 surround works perfectly, providing a very good sense of space both in movies and gaming. I highly recommend it.

  • Excellent sound with many connection options. You can have a system connected via optical and another system via analog ports, and have them all play at the same time!

    The best you can get for its price.
    Sound on another level and in games you know and hear where the opponent is. Truly incredible

    In 2 months I will have owned it for 1 year, I will be simple in my review, excellent product, no problems so far, I have it connected with the LG S60TR and they work perfectly, the sound is crystal clear and the EQ management is excellent. 5/5 easily!

    I replaced the old internal AE5 that was giving me some compatibility issues with my new motherboard, the card is excellent and the software that comes with it is much better than the old one. If you want a serious upgrade in sound, I highly recommend it!

    I have combined it with Sennheiser HD 560S. With a simple EQ, the result is fantastic, but also expected, from a setup that is overall 270 euros. It also performs exceptionally well in games.

    For those who use loudness equalization in their games, e.g., Call of Duty, you will struggle quite a bit with this setting as you cannot "plug it in" directly, and believe me, without this enhancement the game is unplayable. You will need a virtual audio mixer so that you can apply enhancements to a virtual audio cable instead of the sound card itself. (It requires a bit of searching).

    If you are more into gaming, I would suggest you go for Astro A40 with the mix amp. In comparison to this setup, it is plug and play, and you won't lose much in terms of music.

    Sometimes it loses the SUB, other times it has low volume but in terms of sound quality 9.5/10

    Very mediocre card, maybe satisfactory for a home cinema setup, but in terms of quality it has nothing to offer.
