In case you were wondering - the DGX and DSX are PCI-E versions of the DG and DS.

FWIW: I wholeheartedly agree with their comments on Dolby Headphone vs Dolby HomeTheatre (from versions on other cards I've used) and Xear3D

Wish they would compare it to Creative's offerings. Obviously the phoebus seems like an overpriced piece of kit for negligible if at all improved sound quality for vastly cheaper items.

Have Creative given up on soundcard development? All efforts these days focus on rehashing old designs that only support 96KHz and gimmicky software variants of EAX.

Well, isn't the titanium hd still a good performer?
