Boost your desktop's audio performance with a sound card from one of the premier names in computer audio—Creative Labs. The Sound Blaster Audigy SE sound card is designed to enhance your PC music, movie, and gaming experience at an affordable price. An easy upgrade for your desktop's integrated sound, the card's audio processor with Creative's CMSS technology is able to remix your stereo audio into surround sound—even through stereo headphones.
EAX Advanced HD 3.0 further improves game audio tracks providing a more immersive experience. The bundled Creative MediaSource software can be used for creating MP3s, managing a music collection, adding effects and burning custom CD compilations. Simply pop this card into a vacant PCI-card slot in your desktop and you'll have speaker and headphone connections for stereo to 7.1-channel surround sound.
Note: This is an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) version, which includes the product and sometimes the drivers, but not much else. They are packaged generically and do not include software. OEM products are best suited for system builders who don't require documentation or bundled accessories.
Pros: Great price, nice options. I can fill my room with sound!
Cons: My 7.1 Audigy card came with Creative Media Source 3.20.79. There was no documentation in the OEM version. The program was missing the EAX feature altogether, so it was only playing on three speakers. I checked the download page at Creative and got Creative MediaSource Player/Organizer 3.30.21. It still didn't have the EAX buttons, but once I installed Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE and Audigy Value Driver 01.04.0061 and Creative Basic Audio Suite the buttons for EAX showed up, and I could enable the CMSS and adjust the speaker settings.Now my 7.1 system plays through all 8 speakers.

Nice Card, After a few problems
Reviewed By: CCIII on 10/8/2006
Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: Big improvement over the onboard sound, inexpensive.
Cons: No manual, but one is available on Creative site along with the updated drivers.
Other Thoughts: Installed this card on a AMD dual core running WIN Media Center with a modest 2.1 sound system. The result was stuttering sound AND video. Uninstalled card and drivers and reinstalled in a different slot. Bingo, it worked. Much cleaner bass and greater depth of sound. Be sure to disable onboard sound in your BIOS before insalling card.

Pros: My speakers finally are working correctly.
Cons: The disc it came with was smashed to pieces. Yet the box and the card was untouched. I got the driver no problem, I just would have liked the disc...
