That must be right.  Mine is an Xfi XtremeMusic 7.1 SB0460 from 2005. 
It claims to support 24/96 recording (and better playing) but I guess
that doesn't mean it is any good. I don't normally use it to play or
record much music, so it doesn't matter much.  

I tried a comparison of the same CD track recorded twice, and even that
only got a correlation of 20db.  

Never mind.  I'll leave it to those with decent cards.  What cards are
good?
