## Description

Buy

Review: Great sound quality - I bought this card because the sound on my motherboard packed up. I picked this one as all my other gear is Asus. It was easy to install on a spare pci slot and I connected the front panel HD audio panel. The drivers were easy to install on my dual booted XP and Windows 7 64. Just install the card and boot up. Just make sure you disable the on board sound in bios and uninstall all the sound drivers before installation. I was amazed at the power of output and the quality. Through headphones you can simulate 7.1 surround sound and Dolby surround. There are many adjustments you can make in the console. The sound quality is far superior to any on board sound. I can now confirm that this card works fine with Windows 10.
Review: No- I'm not giving it 5 stars - I bought this - being in need of a sound card and this has some ecxellent reviews - all five stars as I can see. But it does have a small problem, now I would expect, old fool that I am, that the default output from a sound card would be switched, depending upon the connected outputs, but no, its not. Now when you read all these 5 star reviews please note they are invariably from those who listen via headphones, and that dear readers is the default setting. If you want your speakers to give you the benefit of your new toy you are going to manually switch from headphone to speaker system every time you switch on or even wake up. Its not the greatest chore in the world you merely merely end up with the Xonar short cut pinned. I did contact Asus and had a bit of a gripe, and was told to get used to it cos thats the way it worked. Now then having got that off my chest let me say that this is a lovely piece of kit the sound is gorgeous both with speakers and headphones, I found it easy to load and set up, apart of course, from its default setting. The job it does is worthy of the 5 stars thrown at it willy nilly, but I don't like the way it does it; so no -I'm not giving it 5 stars Many months have past and at last I've discovered the secret. Took it off the computer; removed the software; refitted but ignored the instructions and used no internal connections -so no front panel and merely reloaded the driver, voila a miracle the sound card now will only operate on the speakers leaving the phones to use the motherboard via the front panel, and it still mutes the card.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pleasantly surprised
*by S***B on 26 September 2012*

I initiated purchase of a PCI sound card for one reason only: Like most onboard sound cards, the one on my ASUS P8Z77V-LX motherboard generates an annoying "POP" on PC boot that is completely out of character with an otherwise very refined system. The ASUS DG card is inexpensive and supports a front panel connection, so I ordered one. The first one was faulty (not detected in any PCI slot despite care taken to observe anti-static precautions) and replaced without quibble by Amazon. The second one installed flawlessly, first time, having of course first disabled the onboard soundcard via the BIOS utility. My pleasant surprise has been the staggering difference in sound quality both compared to the onboard sound card ("wooden") and also a Creative Soundblaster Audigy card (nothing special) that I used until recently in another PC, in the same location, with the same Creative 5.1 amplifier and speakers. Sure, it is not a patch on high end HiFI kit, but music is surprisingly, well, musical - and enjoyable for it. 5.1 imaging from true surround sound source is also more precise than with the other cards. Very happy.
