I said a blind test. In my hypothetical test, you hear 100 recordings you didn't make, of the same material made on 6 different cards. Pick out the Audigy at least 95 out of 100 times. If you're wrong, it costs you a grand. Nonsense. With a plethora of FX,EQ and god knows what else anything is possible,that is not a fair test. How about my Sax recorded on my set up on 6 different cards,price ranging from �20-�1000 and pick out the Audigy. For the record,I'm talking about what I can hear in my recordings not someone else's. I'm talking about what's important to me not someone else. That is why I add the "if it works for you" addendum. ATB-DG.
