Designed and built by Auzentech around the Creative X-Fi audio processor, the Auzen X-Fi Prelude 7.1 is chock-full of quality opamps and even 64MB of onboard X-RAM. This is definitely a sound card made for audiophiles who want to game as well. Here's a quote from the review :- Quote:

Will my favourite Baroque music sound better in this card, provided if I have those wooden, 3-speaker style (woofer-tweeter-mid) system? Also, this op-amp is high-quality. Must be very expensive, and it's replacable, like 'processor upgrade'! Currently I only come to know about good instrumentation amps (the cheapest I could obtain is the Burr-Brown INA128).

Tartini's simple violin sonatas and the Art of the bow are two other pieces i hold in high regard when it comes to testing out whether an SC can deliver prescision when it comes to making good music rather than just technically competent music since baroque simply didn't have the equipment to go technical lol, so it made up in melody. And i'll have to say, the card does pretty darn well i tell you.

I actually have the HD2 sitting here doing nothing. Bought it for review but i haven't gotten to reviewing the tiny beast just yet. But rest assured, i should have a review delivered to Adrian when i've finished my "build your own interconnect" guide.
