Pros: Excellent sound card! Runs great and offers wonderful audio. the Digital outs work great with my receiver on giving it true 5.1 surround sound. Not just a stretched out 2.1. Easy install drivers from website. Works great on Windows 8.

Cons: Only cons is about drivers, the CD that came with it my Windows 8 wouldn't read. No big deal I just downloaded them off the website very easily. But when I went to install them my AVG seen it as a virus. Just had to bypass that and it installed fin.

Overall Review: Got this card when it was on sale for $149.99, planed on getting it anyway full price or not but i noticed it was on sale at the time and took the opportunity. Very satisfied with this card.

Pros: They're cheap but offer great quality for their price. They're small and compact so they don't take up a lot of room which is good for me since I already have a pretty cramp setup.

Cons: To some this might be a con but it does require external power even though they barely pull any power. To me this isn't a problem because I have plenty of outlets.

Overall Review: If you don't want to waste a outlet slot for some low end speakers then for about $5 more you can get the S-150 which is the same speakers but powered by a usb port. I chose the S-120 because I prefer analog over digital for speakers and headsets.
