How well does this card play music? Say compared to the M-Audio Revo for instance just for a baseline.

For my own, I'm just using it to pass digital and I'm letting my receiver do the work.

So is your reciever converting the digital passed through the sound card into analog out of your speakers?

Anything else I (or others) might be able to clear up or point you in the right direction to get info?

Ya, what makes an ocean wave, wave? lol

I'm good for now, you can bet I'll have questions about something at some point though. In the mean time it's time to catch some Z's. 'Night!

Just got an e-mail from bluegears saying they released a new 64-bit driver.

I have 32-bit windows, but if anyone is trying to use this card for 64-bit, it's probably a good idea to check out the new version.

64-bit driver, woot! (NOT!!!)

What a load.

I will never buy a Bluegears product ever again. Why Bluegears would put the 64-bit driver on a higher priority than the 32-bit is beyond me. This makes no sense. Who the heck is using WinXP 64-bit? NO ONE! Who is using WinXP 32-bit? EVERYONE!

Here's what "Jay" had to say when I asked about the 32-bit driver:

Hello,
32 bit driver will be released by the end of this year or the early next year.
Thank you for your patience,
Best Regards,
Jay Heo

Here's a translation of what the email is REALLY saying:

Hi sucker,
We're done with 32-bit and never plan on fixing it to work properly.
Thanks for the $100 dollars, though.
Please do not contact me again.
