The Audigy is a good value card and pretty good sounding on first listen,
however... everything you output from windows will be resampled to 48khz
inside the card, and it doesn't do a very good job of it.
What this means is that e.g if you play an mp3, cd or anything that uses a
sample rate other than 48khz the Audigy is going to add distortion to it.
For a simple demo of what it does, take a tone sweep of say 20hz-20khz, play
it through on the audigy.. once u get over 16khz you'll hear a load of weird
noises which are the result of the resampling. The Audigy 2 is a bit better,
but it still happens. Other cards that don't resample (such as the Terratec
DMX 6Fire that I have) play it clean from beginning to end.
Maybe this doesn't bother you anyway but it's worth mentioning I guess ;)

for like $50 or under you can get an audigy that has a firewire port on it.
