Given their past performance, I seriously doubt it. I've owned four CL cards, from an AWE64 to a AudioPCI128 to a PCI128 to a Live! and **none** of them were decent audio cards for music. Point blank: I'd sooner expect a company like Turtle Beach with a known track record for producing decent audio and higher end cards to produce a sterling audio card than a hack outfit like Creative Labs who have amply proved time and time again via both their sound card and speaker line that they are incapable of tabling a decent audio product for the quality listening market. I've got time and past history (at least four years of it) on my side - what does Creative Labs have? Roj (who has effectively written Creative Labs off and good riddance)
