Summary: Excellent sound card for games and music
Review: I did not think a 3D sound card could make such a difference when playing games. Unreal tournament and Quake 3 has never felt so intense. This card gives depth to the sounds. You can "feel" how far away the sound is. Buy this card. Easy installation. Make sure you have the latest drivers.

Summary: Good sound, but outdated drivers= problems with DirectX 8
Review: I've had this card for a while, and the sound used to be great, but Aureal being out of business meant no further support for drivers (and Diamond's drivers are based on the manufacturer's), and each time I install DirectX 8, the 3D games start crashing after a few minutes of gameplay. The card is very stable in windows 98 and easy to install. I know it is not the video card, I've replaced it a few times.A3D technology is great, I just regret not having the opportunity to keep this card working to its full potential. Even though the last drivers support EAX 2.0, when it is enabled the games crash even faster.

Summary: Its not good at all!
Review: the Reason I bought this is because I was going cheap. When I first installed it, it totally blacked out my computer. I am a coputer tech. and I usually dont have these types of problems. Well my computer Died and when I looked around my Mother board I saw that it buned my Ram. Not woth the Money. Buy Sound Blaster Live for a guarantee product.

Summary: Great with headphones not so great with two speakers
Review: This sound card sounds fantastic with the headphones on. During the demo that comes with the card you literally get the feeling that the helicopter is flying over your head and that there are bees swarming around you. Unfortunately with normaly two speaker headphones it wasn't as good. I never really felt that there was anything behind me and even with the four speaker support it wasn't that great. Headphones are the way to go!!!

Summary: An excellent soundcard for a reasonable price.
Review: Up til' now I've bought Creative Labs Soundblaster cards, which I've always found to be reliable high-quality hardware. But I'd heard glowing reviews about the MX300, and the Sound Blaster Live! was far too expensive for me at the time. The biggest problem with the MX300 is not the sound quality but false expectations. The surround sound effects can only be enabled if a game you're playing has either Direct3D, EAX or Aureal 2.0 driver support. Also, make sure you buy a good quality set of speakers or headphones. You'll never be able to appreciate the excellent sound quality unless you've got the right equipment to hear it with.

Review: When I ordered my computer from the HP website in February 2000, they installed the Monstersound MX300 sound card. Well, I thought what's the big deal. All sound cards were alike, right? Wrong, Man I was blown away while playing my favorte video games. The sound came at me from all directions. Not just left or right but, front, back, up, down and around. And with just two speakers too. Man this card will have you looking behind you to see who's coming. It's hard to discribe it. All I can say is if you can find one, even used GET IT. The conpany Aureal semiconductor,who invented the technology for NASA has been bought by Creative Labs. And their new stuff does't even comes close to this card. Hey Creative Labs want some advise, put the Aureal Technology on your cards and stop drowning them in reverb. Gamers will love you for it. I purchased this card as a spare just in case. I'd hate to have to go back to using sound basters again. Man that would be torture.
