Hi
I'm looking for a good soundcard under $200 that will let me listen to DVD movies in stereo with PowerDVD without clipping/artifacts. Are there any out there?
I want to build a HTPC. I want good sound quality, but I've not been able use pro cards for DVD playback on my main PC due to awful clipping. I've tried the RME Digi 96/8 and Audiophile 24/96.
If its important to know, my main PC is an MSI KT600 mobo with AMD XP 2100 and 512 MB of ram, and the HTPC I plan to build will be almost identical.
Has anyone tried the cheap Chaintech card or an EMU with DVD playback software?
