I'm in the market for a new sound card for gaming/music playback over optical to a DAC, I want to maintain the same level quality for two channel playback that I currently get over USB but add good quality virtual surround for gaming. I've been eyeballing the SB Z but as I don't need the better analog output would I lose anything going with a cheaper model like the Recon3D or one of the USB models?
