| The sound quality of this headset is as good as faultless and the ability to remove the microphone and use them just as headphones gives them greater function than most.
My only real fault with this headset is that the foam around your ears seems to be slightly too small for both myself and a few previous customers. |

| I wasn't sure what to expect from this after reading the reviews, but all I can say is if you're thinking about buying it - do it! Was easy to set up, and works extremely well in Vista. Have already used to transfer old VHS video and have also hooked up to my Freeview Recorder without any hassle at all. |

| After reading other positive reviews here I recently purchased this Logitech System. At around £25 I can't believe how good it is. It's small, neat and effective.
"Setting up" is too complex a word - press one button and it just sets itself up! I mainly use it to stream audio from my PC via the headphone output to my hifi, sometimes from my Sansa MP3 player to the hifi. It's amazing value. I do get occasional drop-outs, probably due to interference from whatever is going on in ... Read More: |

| Was looking to upgrade my sound quality, but not wanting to pay any huge amount of money. After reading the reviews on this card i decided to go for it. And wow! What a great sound card for such a small price!
The one thing i do have to warn people of, if you use crappy speakers with this sounds card, the sound quality is awfull, as the card tries to send out sound quality and pitches that the speakers cant manage. Make sure you have a good sound system to go with it. The combination that Amazon recommend ... Read More: |

| 5.LINDY USB 2.0 to Audio Adapter from: LINDY |

Average Rating:  >>More Details |

|
| A neat unit, but despite trying a different driver and tweaking all the volume controls I could find, I failed to get this unit working satisfactorily. Maybe I was just unlucky, but with Windows XP I could not get my microphone working, and the sound volume remained low. The sound and mike work OK in a different set-up, so this leaves me with a question mark over the USB adapter. |

| 6.Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 from: Creative June 03, 2008 |

|
| I bought this for £39.99 from our local Argos store (as it was £20 cheaper than on Amazon), as I wanted an external sound card to play back music from my computer
Listening to MP3s through reasonable powered stereo monitors, it's sound really is offensive. You can really hear the poorly implemented psycho-acoustic treatments, ('X-Fi audio enhancements') in operation - boosting/compressing/expanding all sorts of frequencies - which totally screws the equalisation and balance of the original recordings to create a complete ...

| 7.Sound Blaster Surround 5.1 from: Creative November 07, 2006 |

| I bought this with the sole intention of using it with my laptop for DJ'ing. I had previously just used the laptop's built in sound and wasn't impressed with the overall sound, too bright. This little gem sounds superb, a nice balanced sound that made my laptop sound a lot more professional. I was worried that the USB would add latency and cause trouble with outputting 4 hours non stop music, I needn't have worried, the Sound Blaster handled it all without any trouble. Well pleased!! |

|
| With over 400 pre-recorded tapes and 100+ bits of vinyl, I was looking for an inexpensive solution that allowed me to convert these into a digital format. I ordered this on the strength of the positive reviews I'd seen here. I'd be a liar if I said I hadn't some mild concerns about the negative reviews I'd read also. I needn't have worried - this didn't disappoint. The only minor niggle was that the instructions on how to set up your PC catered only for Vista users - I still run XP. Other than that this product does what it says on ... Read More: |

| Very nice bit of kit. Plenty of connections, good software and very good recording quality. The device and its software installed with no problems.
The sound card was bought to allow my PC to play iTunes through my amp. This it does very well with the optical output providing a very detailed and lively sound. I also tested it recording an original mini-disc to the PC. Again very good quality and no problems with the software. The only one minor gripe I have with the unit is the blue LED on the top. This is fine when the device is ... Read More: |

| I generally agree with ShineBella - the instructions are all wrong, check the internet. Apart from that, there were no set up problems, The driver included is quite good too. In fact, when it wants to work the sound card works well too, but at roughly £20 it is just a cheap sound card and I'm not the only one to complain here of a crackling which kicks in after a couple of hours of the sound card being in operation. Up to this point it sounds nice, but once the crackling starts all other sound is drowned out and you need to restart the computer to ... Read More: |
