Best of breed
We need an external sound card to ship with our sound systems because many internal sound cards are too noisy. We have tested 27 external cards. Many are cheap unbranded Chinese knock-offs. This was by far the best sound card we found. It has a C-Media CM108 chip. It has excellent gain and low noise. It is expensive however.

It works perfectly
Motherboard sound card damaged on older computer that still works perfectly.
Couldn't source a PCI sound card. This was the perfectly simple solution. All sound functionality still controlled from the Windows interface. Best solution for solving a troublesome problem.

interesting piece
not sure why they went all the way to 7.1 with it. I would never use this to power a 7.1 surround sound system? definitely not something you want hanging out of your computer for a long length of time especially if you have a speaker and mic cable hooked to it. it really pulls on the connection. the buttons on the device are also odd. of course im going to control everthing on my computer. plus the buttons are so small and there is no indicator to see what your doing with the buttons you have to look at the computer for that so they're really kind useless and in the way. I guess its digiital sound. not sure. as far as quality I hear no difference compared to my realtek integrated card. basically this an emergency piece for when the integrated card on your laptop has gone bust. just be careful when u have it all plugged in.... its really a disaster waiting to happen.

Flimsy construction
I purchased the unit to use instead of having to plug earphones or a small computer speaker around the back of my computer located under my desk. I plugged it in the usb port on the front and the sound was thin but worked. Unfortunately, the earplug cable put stress on the plug and the metal jack that goes into the USB port, broke away from the board inside the jacks plug.

Just what I needed
Sounds were coming from my laptop computer but not from the sound jack. This device solved my problem and now I can get wonderful sound to go through my movie protector.
This device is great!

It works!
I had tried, without success, to get a connector that would reanimate my stereo to computer attachment. Then I talked to a trouble shooter at Dell, and "voila!"
