I'm looking for a USB  sound card for use for music and games. I've narrowed it down to two, both of the Sound Blaster brand: X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro and the E1. I'll only need stereo output, which is why I think I would probably be fine with the E1, except that it's an amplifier instead of a sound card.
 
I have a few questions: 
 
 
Which one would be better for my purposes?
 
Would the X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro be worth the extra $15-$20 for me even though I'll only need it for dual-channel output instead of 5.1? Will the additional functionality be worth the extra money?
 
How is the X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro better than the E1?
