[QUOTE="giantjoebot, post: 214810, member: 26289"] OK so then anyone got any suggestions on a good sound card, that doesn't take up 2 PCI slots, and has Digital Coaxial out? I'm not really sure about using a USB external sound card, just not really big on the idea. What about the one that I linked to in my original post? The reason that I like Digital Coaxial over optical is for 2 reasons. First there is the problem with optical where if you ever need to unplug it, it can affect the connection, or at least thats what I've heard. That its bad to unplug and replug an optical cable. The other reason is the conversion from an electrical signal to optical. I have noticed a delay due to it, though that may have been due to the cheap receiver I was using at the time. I had an optical connection to my receiver, and an analog connection to a RF transmitter, which went to speakers in the next room. There was a noticeable delay in the optical connection. [/QUOTE]
