Amazing Sounds!
Super easy to install and get up and running and fantastic sound quality compared to on board If you may need one you must get one! Fantastic card and great to see the Soundblaster cards still on the go after many years

Great Sound Card
This sound card mainly replaced the internal one integrated on the PC motherboard for listening to music, due to its very good technical parameters and most importantly it has metal sockets instead of plastic ones, which puts this product higher in the ranking.

Great sound
Bought to replace a old Sound Blaster card and the sound is fantastic. The quality is superb through a 5.1 system and headphones. The only downside was the price

Fantastic sound
A much clearer better sound than onboard audio. I bought the AE-5 Plus Pure version. I highly recommend this soundcard👍

1st Class Audio
What a great soundcard! Using a 5.1 it gives a full audio experience. I was still using an Audigy2 until recently. Sound Blaster soundcards have been my favourite for 20 years!

Expensive Mistake
I have used creative products for a long time, so I assumed I was on safe grounds. This item however is so bad, that it is completely worthless and a waste of time and money. I warn any prospective buyer, save yourself a headache. You find you are constantly reinstalling software to try to make the thing work; it works poorly if it does, quality is terrible, the controlling software is next to useless. Overall, it's a very expensive mistake.
