Wonderful

Nice And haS Alot of Environment Fx

très bon produit

A little pricey but a very good quality card. Please check for PCIe X1 slot & space if you already have a graphics card. Mine is a snug fit but does fine. The sound quality is awesome and discover a new level of sound quality while listening to your usual music. Other special features are dual mic and powerful headphone amp. Best experienced with Media monkey player or winamp. The bass is prominent and using it with my old Creative inspire 4500 (4.1) speakers. Its worth spending a few bucks for crisp music experience.

Bought this card because of the background hiss, speckled crackling and hums from the on-board sound. Initially very disappointed as I got very similar problems from the Audigy. I had read somewhere regarding the same problem, that you needed to use the card for a couple of days before these background noises resolve themselves. Couldn't see how that could work. Tried reseating the card with no improvement. Persevered for a couple of days checking drivers and sound applications. I had recently updated my Slackware system to 14.2 and was having trouble anyway with to the move to pulse. Gave up and decided to return the card and try one of these USB external sound adapter but it was a couple of week before I could get round to shutting down and removing the card. At this stage the problems were so bad I stopped listening to sound fed from the computer On the appointed day before I started I fired up BBC iplayer and lo and behold the sound was perfect. With some excite I then tried Spotify. Utter silence between tracks. If I'm not playing something I forget that I have the amp turned on, it is absolutely silent. I'm astonished. Why this happens I have no idea but the sound quality and stereo separation is now better than anything I have had in the last 20 years. My speakers are still the old Wharfdale based boxes that I built over 45 years ago while still at college. The amp is an old Trio that I inherited nearly 10 years ago. The combination is perhaps a bit boomy on the bass (I don't even have the sub-woofer connected at the moment) but this is just joy and bliss.

The sound card looks very nice and the sound is perfect, worth the money.

Der Sound Blaster Audigy 5 kommt mit PCIe- Anschluss und der Möglichkeit, vom Kopfhörer bis zum 7.1 Sound alles anhören, dabei noch zwei Mikrofone gleichzeitig zu betreiben (oder ein Mikro und ein Line-in Eingang anzuschließen) und einen optischen Toslink Anschluss zu verwenden, darüber hinaus besitzt sie noch über einen kräftigen Kopfhörer-Ausgang. Es gibt kaum ein andere Soundkarte, die diese Vielfalt anbietet, den Creative auf dieser Karte mit ihrem eigenen E-MU Soundchip realisiert. Ich verwende die Karte in einem Intel-Serverboard, das von Hause aus keinen Soundchip enthält und virtualisiere sie unter Windows Server 2016. Board und Software sind bekannt für ihre Anforderungen: die Software von Creative läuft jedoch einwandfrei, die Karte funktioniert hervorragend und liefert auch in den Gastbetriebssystemen was sie soll: Musik zum Abwinken. Creative liefert hier eine hervorragende Consumer-Karte, die alles für den Hausgebrauch zum auch fortgeschrittenen Musik hören liefert. Wer dagegen Musik selbst produzieren und in das halbprofessionelle Lager einsteigen möchte, wird am ehesten mit einem Gerät wie dem Steinberg UR22 MKII USB Audio Interface inkl. Apple iPad Support glücklich werden.
