Hi John, Those cards will work nicely and sound nice with Logitec Z5500 5.1 speakers. They are the speakers I have. I have used a lot of creative cards with these speakers and as long as the card supports digital i/o, there will be no problems with drivers or anything. Oh and they sound great. I usually tell my creative cards to enable SPDIF pass-through.

In particular I see there is a software pack which allows the card to use Dolby Digital Live which I want to take advantage of. My worry is that SoundBlaster drivers have sometimes been problematic for Jaws users. Does anyone have experience of using these cards successfully and what is your opinion of sound quality, etc? I want to match it with a set of Logitec Z5500 5.1 speakers which I already have and really am impressed with.
