I finally get the DG for about 48 USD vs DX  usd 157 vsthe Phoebus with a price of 400. A great value if you ask me.

Another Doubt, does the DG support full duplex hd playback?

Quote:   Thanks for the advice. I will think about it. After reading This review:   http://www.hardocp.com/article/2012/07/09/asus_dgx_dsx_xonar_rog_phoebus_sound_cards/1   The Phoebus leaves me a bad taste. The DSX and DGX according this review are very close to the Phoebus...

Quote:   Does not the Xonar Cards emulates EAX which is the point of DirectSound? From what i know since Vista Directsound in no longer used since then it is emulated, correct if i am worng. Anyway checking some prices the Titanium HD is way over the price of the Phoebus. And the...

For the people who really know about this, is the Phoebus a good card? (Compared to the DX)   Is the Titanium HD is as good as the phoebus?

Quote:   From what i know the Phoebus and the STX are almost the same board. I can't wait to get my hands on that board. For years i wanted to buy a serious souncard. Now i can.

Quote: Are you using the onboard sound card? I decided to go with Phoebus. It is expensive i know but i prefer to spend big one time that little few times. Besides it give room if i want to buy bigger headphones tomorrow. Thanks for the advices guys...

I found this:     It seems to be that the output impedance is 200. How do you make the calculations? It also  describes an ampliified output but there is no reason to believe that the mobo has an head amp. It seems that the DX at least sounds equally (Volume speaking) as the ALC892...

Searching deeper i found that the alc892 has a full scale voltage output of 1.2 Vrms and the DX 2.0 Vrms. Do this means that the DX sounds louder than the ALC892?

Quote:   I see. i will think about it, Because the price DX + E11 is almost the same as the Phoebus (Yeah i know......) adding 7.1 analog connection and (almost) the same sound quality as the STX. Without adding additional equipment and the hassle of replacing batteries. And it give...

Quote: But obviously On the Phoebus it's gonna sound louder and better than in the DX + Fiio e11 or the DG only.

Also the Phoebus is a good option. A bit pricey but it has what i what i need and more. Anyone has any experience with this board? Does this card and mines HD598 makes a good combo?

In case that i would like to buy a STX what device i could use to conect the STX with my 5.1 System, remember it is analog only.

Yeah i know. Is what we have here. It's a shame. All imported electronics are overpriced in this place. I had to pay around 400 for the HD598. And the STX is around 400.   So the DGX is the way to go.  Thanks.

Quote:   I like the combination of the DX + Fiio E11. The problem here is the price. In your personal experience does the sound differ to much between the DG and the DX?   Is the difference between resolution (DG, alc892)96KHz vs 192 KHz (DX) noticeable?

Quote:   The problem with the stx is that i will only use it for headphones, as the 5.1 i hace has only analog inputs. For now the DG is taking all the points. But  i'm worry that with the DG the quality will be inferior to the onboard (spec wise the ALC892 has superior quality)...

Thinking about the STX, it is really worth it over the DX?

I think i will go for the DG. Mainly for the price, i think that only the head amp only it's gonna make a huge difference over the 892 chipset. Plus eax it's a no brainer.

Mhh. What about eax?

So why the prive diff is almost the doble. Because a head amp plus the price the dg is a no brainer

The features of the DG makes a differences in gaming?

Quote:   Yes i have a front connector but is very faulty.  So the DX + E11 would be the better option. The DG comes second and the onboard + e11 comes third, right?

Quote:   I didn't know that the onboard has an amped line output. To my knowledge the headphone jack is the line out also there is subwoofer, side speaker, rear speaker, mic and line in jack. Nothing more.   From what i reading the DX wouldnt be enough to replace the onboard solution...

I appreciate your advice. But i saw: Returns not accepted... No thanks. It is a nice price but i had to wait for seven days for customs te release my sgs3. Plus the non return policy doesn't inspire me confidence.   But in your opinion the upgrade to the DX from the onboard is worth it?

I know. But buying the FIIO E11 cost almost the same as the DX around  117 Usd. For a little more i prefer changing the soundcard. If the sound quality is worth it. What do you think? I fear to buy things offfshore mainly beacause customs restrictions and the warranty .The problem with the DG...
