Worth upgrading?

I have just been wondering that now I have my Z5500s is it worth upgrading my soundcard?

Im currently running an old soundblaster live 24bit.

Is it worth upgrading to one of the cheap X-fis etc or not?

IMO yes, it would make a decent amount of difference with those speakers.

Forget Creative and get an ASUS Xonar

If you want something abit less than that and would like a asus card then this is perfect.
