[Alsa-user] re: pci128 or sbLive or AOpen card

[shea martin]

Will any of these AOpen/Acer cards sound better than a SBLive or PCI128?  (I am ordering a system from a vendor which only carries Creative and Acer sound cards). ACER AW320 PCI A3D WAVETABLE SOUND CARD ACER AW744 PRO YAMAHA YMF744 4-CHANNEL AOPEN AS9400 4 CHANNEL PCI SOUND CARD AOPEN AS9600 6 CHANNEL PCI SOUND CARD 5.1   The more opinions the better.  I order on Wednesday.   Thanks.   Jens Benecke, wrote: "I don't think you'll notice sound quality. The SB128 is (IIRC) based on an Ensoniq chipset, the Live is based on the EMU10k chipset (which is much more powerful, but only used for effects, surround sound decoding, rendering MIDI output, etc). " thanks for advice.
