To all the Game Theater XP Owners...

[jaredm77]

I just ordered my Game Theater XP yesterday, and will hopefully have it on Monday. I am going from a Sound Blaster Live! X-Gamer 5.1 card and am wondering if any of you noticed a difference in sound quality between the Sound Blaster card and the Game Theater? I've heard some people say that the sound is much better and then others have said it was the vast feature set that made them buy the card. For me, I chose it because I was tired of the cracking and popping found in Windows 2000, and I was hoping thatthis card would sound much better. So did I make the right purchase, has anyone who owns the card noticed a difference? Thanks.

HI
I have had the XP hooked up now for just over a week,and find it a whole bunch better the the SB live .I never was able to use the SB drivers other than the win 2000 ones,the machine would freak out when it came to any sound related funtion.Now all is sweet.As far as i`m concerned XP rules at the moment:: good choice .

Yeah, the sound quality is better, the features are better, the CPU usage is lower, just about everything about the HGTXP is better then the SB Live IMO
