Rating: Summary: Awesome Sound Blaster for an awesome price Review: This is the best sound card I have ever bought, with 5.1 surround sound, DVD movies are incredible. The unit looks like a piece of art & it works as it should. Haven't had many problems, sometimes you have to restart your program using the extigy if you turn it off and on again to reinitialize it, no big deal. I hot swap this thing with multiple computers, depending what I do and it works great. The remote lets you control a little of your computer with an easy to follow on screen display (like shutdown, launch applications, or control windows or DVD players). I highly recommend it!
Rating: Summary: I love this thing Review: This is the best sound card I have used. I use it mainly for studio work, IT IS COMPLETELY CLEAN, I LOVE IT. There are so many inputs and outputs that it has become the center of all my audio/video needs. If projects an extremely clean surround sound signal and with my logitech z 680 system, I can't imagine a better sound for my pc, xbox, dvd player, and vcr. This thing is amazing and I believe everyone should own one. I can run all these items without changing a single cable or flicking a switch. Everything is at your fingertips. This is the best.

Rating: Summary: customer service stinks! Review: This item was advertised as a way of bypassing a defective sound chip on a laptop. That's why I bought it. However, it did not, as advertised, override my defective sound card. I contacted customer service through email (since they don't have an 800 number.) The first time was 9-15, the second time a few days later. As of today, 9-24, they still have not replied. I bought a Nomad Jukebox from them the same day through a different vendor and although it works fine I'm returning that too because of the poor customer support. This may be a good item, but I have no idea since the customer support is so bad. If customer support is important to you, DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT!
Rating: Summary: More trouble than it's worth Review: This thing has done nothing but cause trouble on my PC. It does not work properly with Windows XP even with the updates from Creative Labs.It has totaly caused havok with all of my drivers. I removed the software for the Extigy and all is back to normal now. Hmmm. These problems were not because of my installation as I had 2 other persons give it a try also. Both of them Computer Techs. Save your money! Buy anther Brand!
Rating: Summary: A must buy for people using a notebook for primary PC Review: Very easy to install, many options and input/outputs. Great bundle of software. If you have an MD recorder, its an excellent way to record digitally via the optical cable out. Great for use with MP3's due to the various sound modes. Software included allows you to RIP tracks from your CD's and convert to MP3. Just that alone makes this a smart buy.
