Got this for around half a ton give or take a few pounds, and for the money it is amazing! Built in headphone amp gives a hefty boost to your sound whilst keeping the quality. I'm not sure if I could tell the difference between this and something more expensive, so i've rated sound quality as 9 just in case! Brilliant for my Grado SR125i's!
Good sound quality from this. I needed to upgrade from my onboard audio to use Roccat Kave 5.1 Surround Sound Analog Gaming Headset. The sound quality is awesome through my headset but took a while adjusting the sound card options to get it just right. Music sounds a lot better than my onboard sound but i am not an audiophile expert and can't compare it to the more expensive sound cards. I am glad of my purchase
