The Audigy 4 is better. Maybe nothing too extreme, but the details are better. There is a higher sampling rate and a better signal to noise ratio. Definitly what I need for a studio.Dragon-of-Rune wrote:The audigy 4 is f*ck*ng expencieve and not really that much better then the Audigy 2 ZS platinum pro.

Everything is the same instead for the Signal to Noise Ratio it's 113 instead of 108 like the 2ZS

Actual a retail Audigy 2 ZS Pro is around 160 USD. That is the Pro edition, not the Gaming version.Dragon-of-Rune wrote:A normal sounblaster audigy 2 ZS oem should be between 50 and 60 the retail version is between 70 and 80.xHaZxMaTx wrote:What is a good, affordable sound card, say under $60?
