    Creative Sound BlasterX AE-5

    Has anyone tried this new sound card from Creative? It is using ESS Sabre DAC, i am just wondering about the performance. I haven't used any Creative products for years, how is it so far? I am thinking to ditch my Xonar Essence STX if the review is quite positive for AE-5.
