Which of these two cards has the best potential for future upgrades? I know the DJ version of the Indigo has a line out (and I take it that'd outperform the standard headphone out if I were to connect an external headphone amp up?) but I wouldn't be able to connect an external DAC up later on would I?
Also the Audigy 2 is (currently) only half the price of the DJ (if not slightly less) through an online offer at PC World UK. It also has an optical out (though would that be useful to a DAC/headphone amp?)...plus the added bonus of EAX support for the few games I play - and of course 7.1 surround sound support...which would certainly be nice...if I got round to getting a 7.1 setup.
