BEST SELLERS

In Sound Card

The description doesn't say yes or no to Linux, so it was a gamble. Purchased for a Lenovo T520 running Ubuntu whose right channel doesn't work, either internal or external speakers. Plugged it in, went to audio settings, hardware tab, selected it, and now have sound in both speakers.

This sound card with an optical output has given life to my Creative Inspire 5700 speakers... I am very satisfied with my purchase. I had to utilize the low profile bracket.

I needed an amp/boost for Sennheiser Game Zero headset. The U5 has boost, equalizer, that has better quality than the Sound Blaster Z pcie. The different modes(audio config) do work well. Not sure if I'll use live, cave, enhancements much, the studio sounds best for my needs. Playing BF or GTA 5, the sounds are clear and bass where you want it. The best feature is being able to switch from headset to speakers with pushing the button in game, where doing this with before would usually cancel any sound in game. Also gives my Logitech 2.1 speakers a great boost and sound clarity. Had no difficulty with downloading, installing the driver.

The sound card has very rarely failed to do what it claims to do and I highly recommend it to you. Yes it does have a mic/headset plugin and I have no final complaints
