Two new sound cards from Auzentecht

This time, cheap and good tokens may come to mind.

Renowned for its quality solutions, Auzentech has come up with two fresh products. The first is an eight-channel sound generator called X-Raider 7.1. At the heart of the card is C-Media's well-known CMI8768 chip (such as the Auzen X-Mystique 7.1 Goldon), which, among other things, guarantees full support for Dolby Digital Live - along with most known standards (EAX1.0 / 2.0 , A3D and DirectSound 3D). The 24-bit / 96 kHz maximum sampling device could be ours for $ 60.

Our second delinquent is even cheaper than his aforementioned counterpart - accordingly, he only has six channels (which is plentiful for most users). The low-profile X-Studio 5.1 has the VIA (High Quality ICE) 1723 chip, which is also quality in its category. Here, too, the manufacturer offers the replacement of certain (output) operational amplifiers - as with the X-Raider. The $ 50, also available 24/192 sound card, of course, supports EAX1.0 / 2.0, A3D and DirectSound 3D standards.
