Music professionals are uncompromising when it comes to the quality andperformance of their audio cards. They don't just demand realism; they demand reality. The Audiophile 2496 can achieve this standard because it doesn't rely on gimmicks that compromise sound quality. It simply delivers
true 24-bit paths, unequaled drivers and purely remarkable fidelity. Just ask Computer Music Magazine, who said of the Audiophile, "How does it sound? Well, in a word, stunning."
"The biggest eyebrow-raiser for us in this year's awards is the relegation of the Sound Blaster Live! to second place in the soundcard category. What might at first glance seem like a fairly trivial movement is, I would suggest, actually indicative of an overall shift in the home computer music market away from all-in-one, originally games-orientated soundcards to single-purpose high quality audio systems such as this year's winner, the M-Audio Audiophile. Think back to only a couple of years ago and the number of affordable audio cards available to the potential buyer could have been counted on one hand; nowadays we see at least one new (and invariably excellent) model a month, and it's a trend that's clearly set to continue. Good news for everyone, then."
- Ronan Macdonald, Editor, Computer Music Magazine
