    TEMPOTEC Serenade PCI-E Sound Card

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any experience withe this sound card. Is it comparable to the Asus Xonar Essence STX II? http://www.tempotec.com.cn/en/2-Product/Serenade/SerenadePCIE/index.htm I see it on Amazon for $99. The specs look decent but I'm not an expert on sound cards.

    A good Creative Aurvana! Live 2 competitor recommendation needed.

    I recently purchased two closed back headphones, the Aurvana Live! 2 and ATH-M50xBL. I've decided that the Aurvana Live! 2 is better to my ears (great sound stage, mids and treble extension), so  I'm going to return the ATH-M50xBL. The Aurvana's are not perfect however, they have this nearly 6...

    My Musiland Monitor 02 US "Dragon" Questions.

    Greetings! I'm thinking about gettin this seemingly too-good-too-be-true DAC. And I'm thinking that for such a low price ~$150 there must be some compromise somewhere. By appearance, I just don't like that the RCA out is on the front, and there are no LED indicators. But I do have a few...
