Asus Xonar D2X Sound Card review
by Brann Mitchell
7/1/2008
The Asus Xonar D2X is a high-end sound card without equal for your enthusiast-level PC. Behold its over-the-top looks, marvel at its no-holds-barred features, and be captivated by the sound it makes. The D2X isn't for everyone, it's expensive, it's a showboat, and it wants power. But, it is without equal. You may find better, but certainly not an equal.
CyberSnipa Sonar 5.1 Pro Surround Sound Headset
by Brann Mitchell
5/19/2008
CyberSnipa has its crosshairs on surround sound gaming headsets, but do they hit the mark? Yes and no is the definite answer. The Sonar 5.1 Pro Surround Sound Headset offers a decent all-in-one headset with 8 speakers, plush velvety comfort, and a USB connection. But it only offers mediocre sound quality.
Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCIe
by Brann Mitchell
3/4/2008
Bordering on false advertisement, Creative's latest X-Fi isn't an X-Fi at all, it's a new rev of the Audigy series using the X-Fi drivers and gliding on the PCI Express bus. The EAX gaming enhancements are gone, however, in favor of the more usable Crystallizer and CMSS3D functions. The X-Audio does provide a good value with decent performance, stability, and last but not least, is does sound good.
Turtle Beach Earforce HPA2 Surround Sound Headphones

Turtle Beach unleashes the Earforce HPA2 Surround Sound Headphones to gamers with lousy neighbors and a headphone fetish. With 5.1 surround, an independent amp, a microphone, quality construction, and decent comfort all combine to make an exceptionally complete package. A decidedly high-end product, the HPA2 are not cheap, but they do deliver. The only downside is that you still might have lousy neighbors.
Auzentech X-Fi Prelude 7.1 review
by Brann Mitchell
9/14/2007
A wunderkind with family troubles, Auzentech's X-Fi Prelude combines Creative's X-Fi with high-quality components to create an uber sound card that not only sounds good, it also plays good. But, the X-Fi Prelude also shares the X-Fi's drivers, which loosely translates into trouble.
Everglide s-500 Professional Gaming Headphones
by Brann Mitchell

The Everglide s-500 Professional Gaming Headphones are big and scary. The understated sealed-back design offers good sound isolation and snappy sound, good for immersing you in the game, but they might be slightly uncomfortable for those with big ears like me. You also get a clip on microphone and a carry case for traveling to LAN events. But for $99 you might think twice, and I wouldn\'t blame you.
Auzentech X-Meridian 7.1 review
by Brann Mitchell
12/13/2006
Auzentech's X-Meridian sound card is a high-end encoding sound card that's big on sound quality, featuring 8-channel 24 bit/192 KHz output, DTS and Dolby Digital Live encoding, and includes both coaxial and optical digitial output as well as input. This card will impress you with its sound quality, besting the X-Fi in everything but gaming. Put it in your computer and long live the king, baby.

The CoolerMaster Musketeer 3
by Brann Mitchell
11/30/2005
The Musketeer 3 is CoolerMaster's foray into the bygone analog era passed. It puts the tube back into your computer, reviving the retro stereophonic sound. The Musketeer 3 is smooth, classy, and well made, but it also comes with a few flaws.
