The Audigy would be a great choice. It will go great with your speakers. You do have a good set of speakers, so as long as they sound good to you then keep them.
I use the Audigy Platinum on WinXP...

If cost is not a factor then go with the S4 Midiland 8200 v2.0 for great sound.
I have a friend that has the Klipsch 4.1 setup in his house. I heard no distortion from the sub at high volumes.

Go with the Klipsch v.2-400. These are 4.1 speakers. They are about the best sounding system for the price so far. You will not be disapointed.
Just wanted to point out that the Sound...

Regular CD players cannot read mp3's.
If you have a recordable cdrom drive you can convert your mp3s to .wav and the software that came with your cd burner will auto convert them to .cda. The only...

I don't know anything about the DMAN card. I haven't even heard of it.
If the DMAN card has Soundblaster emulation then he only needs one card. Most cards out there support soundblaster.

The SBLive! is prefect for what richardri wants to do.
My friend is a musician and he does all his recordings using the Live! with no problems now. He had the same background noise...

I use a Live! on my K6-II and my K6-III.

I too am a audiophile. The SBLive put out a more...

I had the same problem as you. I put wire loom on my wires and haven't had a problem yet.
Hope it helps

Now the question is when is Martin Logan coming out with PC speakers?

A good price for those speakers too. Not bad.

The DXR3 card has a 1/8" audio out on the back of the card. get a cable with 1/8" male on both ends. Plug one end into the DXR3 and the other into the line input of the soundcard. If the Creative DVD...

At this point it's best to wait. In the next month or two were are going to see some new stuff.

Win98 still will not run well on a 486. If you want performance and have all your hardware work on the 486 your company might want to install Linux on it. Linux does support the SB16.

Hopefully now soundcards will start to advance quicker. I read an article that said people now are starting to take computer sound serious. Before it was graphics and processing power. Since now...

On the Value the 1/8inch black is rear and the green is front.
